Enhancing Outdoor Learning with Childcraft Out2Grow

In today's educational landscape, striking a balance between digital learning and hands-on experiences is crucial. School Specialty, a prominent leader in education solutions, recognizes this need and is thrilled to unveil its new Childcraft Out2Grow Outdoor Furniture line.

Expanding Learning Beyond Classroom Walls

With a focus on preK-12 education, this innovative furniture line aims to extend learning beyond traditional settings, providing children with robust opportunities for exploration, movement, and real-world discovery. As outdoor learning becomes increasingly important, Childcraft responds to educators' requests for equipment that promotes developmental skills including gross motor function and social-emotional growth.

A Versatile Collection for Every Outdoor Zone

The Out2Grow line introduces a range of durable and sustainable pieces such as:

• - Sand and Water Tables: Perfect for sensory play and scientific exploration.
• - Planters: Encouraging environmental awareness and hands-on gardening experiences.
• - Play Kitchen: Fostering imaginative play focused on life skills.
• - Collaborative Benches: Supporting group activities and team projects.

These items enable schools and educational institutions to create specialized outdoor zones dedicated to science, dramatic play, and interactive project-based learning.

Built to Last and Engage

One standout feature of the Out2Grow line is its innovative construction using High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), making it not only durable but also environmentally friendly. Here's why this matters:

• - Weather Resistant: The furniture withstands varying weather conditions - sun, rain, and snow - without degrading.
• - Safety First: Rounded corners and splinter-free surfaces ensure child safety during play.
• - Easy Maintenance: Stain-resistant surfaces ensure that the transition between activities is quick and hassle-free.

These attributes collectively create a reliable product designed to support children's learning while prioritizing safety and longevity.

Empowering Educators and Students

Expand Classrooms Outdoors

The Out2Grow line provides educators with the flexibility to take learning outside, allowing children to engage with nature. Outdoor settings encourage real-world observation, hands-on learning, and an appreciation for the environment.

Promoting Collaborative Learning Hubs

With designated spaces for group activities, teachers can foster essential cooperation and social skills, critical aspects for children in PreK through 2nd grade. This structured environment enriches classroom dynamics and enhances collaborative skills.

Multi-Use for Diverse Activities

Whether it's for STEM projects, snack breaks, or artistic endeavors, the furniture supports a variety of activities that cater to the holistic needs of children, boosting not only academic but also physical and emotional wellness.

Holistic Well-being

Emphasizing physical activity and mental well-being, the furniture design prioritizes children's overall health. By reducing screen time and promoting outdoor engagement, the line aids in cultivating focus and self-regulation among young learners.

A Commitment to Transforming Learning Environments

Jennifer Fernandez, Early Childhood Education Strategist at School Specialty, expressed her excitement about the new line, stating, "The Childcraft Out2Grow furniture line arose from our customers' desire for enhanced outdoor learning spaces. With proven benefits spanning academic, health, and emotional development, I am thrilled to provide educators with the tools to create inspiring environments!"
