Out-A-Bout

Out-A-Bout is intended to encourage physical activity, outdoor play, early literacy, and parent-child interaction, for children ages 3 to 5. Parents and children receive prompts to perform certain outdoor, physical activities (e.g., running, jumping, climbing). Using the phone, parents take still photographs of their children engaged in the activities, and the photographs are uploaded into a pre-developed story narrative for subsequent viewing, reading together, and conversation.
