Why real gardens matter for children
At Karrinyup Early Learning Centre, outdoor play is not an optional extra — it is central to how children learn, grow and develop. Research consistently shows that time in real, natural environments supports children’s physical health, emotional wellbeing, and cognitive development in ways that artificial play spaces simply cannot replicate.
Daily access to grass, trees, sunlight and fresh air helps children to:
-
Develop stronger muscles, balance and coordination through climbing, running and uneven terrain
-
Build resilience, confidence and problem-solving skills through open-ended play
-
Improve concentration and emotional regulation through calm, nature-rich surroundings
-
Support healthy vision development by allowing children to focus on distant landscapes
-
Strengthen immunity and overall wellbeing through regular outdoor activity and exposure to fresh air
Many newer childcare centres rely on balconies, rooftop playgrounds or artificial turf. While these spaces may look neat, they limit children’s movement, sensory experiences and connection to the natural world.
By contrast, Karrinyup ELC offers genuine ground-level gardens with real grass, mature trees, birdsong and seasonal change — giving children the freedom to explore, imagine and simply be children in nature every single day.
We warmly welcome you to experience the difference for yourself.
