Being Outdoors Together | Babies 0-18 Months
An adult companion for shared experiences
These cards offer small moments of being outdoors with a familiar adult: watching leaves, listening, sharing a view, enjoying a quiet pause and exploring through movement and touch. The relationship and the baby’s comfort guide what happens. There is no activity to finish, response to produce or sequence to work through.
Choose for this baby today
Birth to eighteen months includes many different ways of moving, communicating and taking part. Select an experience for the baby’s current interests, available movements and care needs. The pictures show possibilities, not required positions or actions. Use familiar home-language words and the baby’s usual communication and positioning support. Agree individual adaptations with families and relevant professionals.
Two groups of possibilities
Close and Quiet offers supported, slower experiences. Moving and Exploring includes opportunities for babies using their own reaching, turning, crawling or walking movements. The groups are not age bands or steps in development. A baby may enjoy experiences from either group, return to a quiet moment after moving, or prefer simply being with you.
