‘Let’s go outside!
Let’s run as fast as our legs can carry us.
Let’s make the best den in the whole wide world.’
The great outdoors are waiting, ready to be filled with excitement and imagination. Explore the fun that can be had outdoors in all weathers and count how many children have gone outside to play in this joyful celebration of imaginative play and the simple pleasure of spending time outside everyday… and cosying up indoors at the end of the day.
At the end of this simple and lyrical picture book are discussion prompts and outdoor activity suggestions, all ready for parents and children to say… LET’S GO OUTSIDE!
