A large open area may be an invitation to run if it is of the right scale and proportion; but it also can create sense of fear and loneliness if the proportions are beyond in relation to children. The physical setting acts as a deciding factor- it can support and encourage a child’s curiosity or it can make the experience of exploration much harder for those who are physically incompatible to keep up with the
