Denmark is known for its innovative “forest schools,” where nature becomes the classroom and learning happens in the great outdoors. These schools—also known as skovbørnehaver—focus on outdoor, play-based education, where children spend most of their day exploring forests, building shelters, climbing trees, and observing wildlife. This model supports not just academic growth but also social, emotional, and physical development. The idea is to let kids be kids—curious, free, and connected to nature. Research has shown that children in forest schools often demonstrate stronger problem-solving skills, better cooperation, and reduced stress levels. In Denmark, this approach is deeply rooted in the belief that early childhood education should nurture creativity and confidence rather than revolve around rigid academics. With rising interest in alternative learning models worldwide, Denmark’s forest schools are inspiring educators across the globe to rethink what a classroom can be. #denmark #facts #DenmarkEducation #ChildDevelopment #didyouknowfacts
