Outdoor play and Pinterest – two of my favourite things! Today I am sharing 10 of my favourite Pinterest boards full of outdoor play ideas. The benefits of outdoor play are endless from better sleep to exercise, from exploring the world around us to developing gross motor skills to name only a few! Check out and follow these boards from very creative and inspiring bloggers for lots and lots of amazing outdoor fun!

Happy Holligans’ Outdoor Play board has everything from backyard play ideas to treasure hunts, from gross-motor activities to outdoor games. “Loads of activities to foster a love for physical activity and the great outdoors in kids”. While your at it, I would highly recommend that you follow all of Happy Hooligans’ boards for endless creative activities for kids!

As a lover of outdoor play I have a number of boards myself on the topic! For lots and lots of summer fun take a look at Outdoor Fun and Play.
