The document discusses outdoor activities and their benefits. It defines outdoor activities as recreation done outside, usually in natural settings. Outdoor activities promote motor skill and cognitive development while having positive health effects. They can involve guided activities led by teachers using playground equipment or free play with toys and natural materials. The Forest School is also discussed as an approach using the outdoor environment for educational purposes through direct experiences in nature.

The term “outdoor activities” means outdoor activity, refers to
recreation done outside, most commonly in natural settings. The
term is made up of the English words “out” and “door”, i.e.
literally means "outside the door".
The activities that encompass outdoor recreation vary depending on
the physical environment they are being carried out in. In addition
to promoting the development of motor skills and cognitive
functions, outdoor activities also have a positive effect on health.

Court playing time can be divided into two parts:
1) Guided activities: The teacher creates an obstacle course using the
playground equipment in the yard, which the children (individually or in
teams) have to overcome. Various tools, signs, etc. hiding in the yard, which
the children have to find individually or in teams. Different row and relay
competitions, even supplemented with theoretical questions.
2) Free activities: Permitting the free use of yard tools and objects, keeping in
mind the compliance with accident prevention rules. To allow climbing on
smaller trees, playing with natural waste (tree branches, twigs), creative
work, with some toys, games that do not correspond to the page function, etc.

The Forest School is an opportunity to implement environmental education
through outdoor activities. The beginnings of the forest school in Europe can
be found in Germany, where it was created primarily for health purposes
(two-week holiday vacation campaigns were organized for vulnerable children
in big cities to prevent tuberculosis).
The most important innovations of the forest school:
- getting out of the school's everyday rhythm
- new teaching tools
- learning is based on direct sensory experience
- new "classroom" (=forest)
- a multitude of tasks requiring experience, activity, practicality and creativity
