A study by Roland Gorges has shown that children who have attended a kindergarten inspired by the concept of outdoor education have acquired skills that are generally above average within all the areas of competence that have been tested compared to children who have attended a more traditional nursery school.
The skills acquired include the very first forms of writing, drawing, reading and mathematics, as well as musical and artistic skills and motivation to learn.
In Northern Europe, this educational model has become an established and widespread reality and has in no way highlighted any difficulties in integrating children into primary school.
On the contrary, with reference to what has been said above about the skills acquired by children and also thanks to the peculiarities of a kindergarten immersed in nature, children who attend it generally have a greater awareness of their body, as well as balance, agility, dexterity, coordination, tactile and perceptive sensitivity.
