Skogsmulle

Swedish Early Years Pedagogy – Skogsmulle

A Swedish early years pedagogy: Skogsmulle, an experiential learning methodology for children aged 5-7 years. Skogsmulle facilitates play focused development by providing nature-based learning activities in the outdoors that stimulate children’s imagination to enhance physical, mental and social development. Using the concept of a fantasy character, stories and songs; Skogsmulle becomes a way of teaching children appropriate to their age of development.  A growing body of academic research has highlighted the need for children to have opportunities to participate in play as a means of building a strong foundation for formal learning later on in life – Skogsmulle is a proven means of achieving this.

1 in 5 children in Sweden have taken part in Skogsmulle.

Skogsmulle is embedded in Sweden, Finland, Norway, Germany, Latvia, Russia, Japan.
