From four walls to open skies: exploring play during indoor and outdoor recess

In this set of children’s drawings, we get a glimpse into their recess adventures. The winter sketch shows the excitement of “Fort Wars,” where kids engage in lively battles and construct forts. Transitioning to spring, the scene depicts “Survival Challenges”, capturing a child playing amidst leaves and sticks. The final image “Sleeping” portrays an indoor recess, with a child asleep. This child-centric approach helps us appreciate the diverse impacts of both outdoor and indoor recess, offering a nuanced understanding of the rich experiences that shape these young lives.
