Experiential education - outdoor sports games

Experiential education in the field of outdoor sports games combines pedagogical approaches with outdoor-specific activities to enable a holistic learning experience. Sports games and movement activities are carried out in natural environments such as forests, parks or playgrounds. This hands-on approach not only promotes motor skills and teamwork, but also strengthens social skills, self-confidence and problem-solving abilities. The games and activities are selected taking into account the age of the participants, their abilities and the learning objectives. Typical elements may include: cooperative games to promote team spirit, challenges to strengthen self-confidence and overcome fears, as well as reflection phases to process the experiences gained and make them useful for everyday life. Through the combination of exercise, experiencing nature and educational methods, experiential education in the field of outdoor sports games offers an effective way of promoting children and young people holistically and positively influencing their personal development.
