Outdoor activities for preschoolers are simple, hands-on games and projects like nature scavenger hunts, sidewalk chalk, water play, and obstacle courses that build gross motor, fine motor, language, and early math skills through unstructured play.

Preschoolers don’t need a fancy backyard or a shopping cart of toys to get the most out of being outside. A patch of grass, a bucket of water, or a handful of sidewalk chalk is often enough to turn ten minutes into a…
