An interesting creative environment can significantly impact both motor learning and cognitive problem-solving for children with special challenges. It is with great joy that Learn to Move will present at the SIPU conference on playgrounds and environments for children on October 16-17 in Stockholm. The conference will focus on various aspects of outdoor environments, including climate, nature, play, motor skills, the need for challenges, and more.
