Projects

The Coalition for Natural Learning (CNL) facilitates workshops for OLE! Texas. During a workshop educators, administrators, community members, and designers work together to create a schematic design (rough draft) of the outdoor learning environment. After the workshop, the schematic design is further-developed into an illustrative master plan that is provided to the childcare center. Below are examples of the illustrative master plans. The pdf files of these plans are available by clicking on either the titles or images of the projects. Centers may apply for free design services by filling out the Childcare Center Application for Complimentary Design Services.
