“…Similar tendencies appear in Germany, showing a smaller autonomy of children in their daily routines (Blinkert, 2016). Apparently, this trend is particularly shown for less education-minded groups: while street-childhood was a low-income phenomenon in the 1980s, street-childhood now is a phenomenon for well-educated middle-class people (Blinkert, 2016).…”

“…Future research should integrate longer time spans and analyse the autonomy of children in their daily play areas. Nature experience areas possibly provide support autonomy due to learning and self-efficacy experiences (Blinkert, 2016), which needs to be analysed in future research.…”

“…The scenario of parents being accused because of their children walking their neighbourhood independently seems dramatic in the European situation, where a lot of adults report on a free, wild time in the forests or streets without any attendance of their parents or other grown-ups in their childhood (Blinkert, 2016). However, this has been changing in the last years.…”

“…Enhancing the independent mobility of children can be addressed by creating an attractive and walkable neighbourhood (Blinkert, 2016) and involving children in the design and evaluation of play areas (Broberg, Kytta, & Fagerholm, 2013). Both these aspects are picked up in the concept of 'nature experience areas' for children.…”

“…Este caso ha sido muy popular y ha dado lugar a iniciativas como la 'paternidad de corral o campo abierto' (free-range parenting), que aboga por permitir a los niños, en función de su edad y madurez para evitar situaciones de peligro, y siempre que sus necesidades básicas estén cubiertas, desarrollar actividades de manera independiente (Flynn, 2018). La imagen de que se denuncie a unos padres por permitir que sus hijos se paseen solos por su vecindario parece exagerada en Europa, donde muchos adultos informan de que sus hijos pasan tiempo libremente en bosques o calles sin presencia de sus padres u otros adultos (Blinkert, 2016). Sin embargo, esto ha venido cambiando en los últimos años.…”

Nature experiences are important aspects in the development of children, with positive effects on the physical, mental and social level. Nature experience areas, that is, play areas with natural elements only, instead of constructed play elements, address the aim to support child development. This article analyses the effects of three nature experience areas in a metropolitan area, compared with three playgrounds serving as control areas. In a quasi-experimental design, behaviour observations on play behaviour and autonomy of children playing in either nature experience areas or control playgrounds were conducted in 2017. Results show that the play of children in the nature experience areas was more complex than that of those on the playground. The frequencies of children playing in nature experience areas are lower than on the playground. The autonomous behaviour, measured by social interactions, the involvement of adults and an autonomous mobility, shows a differentiated picture between the three areas. Natural experience areas could provide important aspects to support child developments, and improvements are being discussed. RESUMENLas experiencias en la naturaleza son importantes para el desarrollo de los niños, con efectos positivos en los niveles físico, mental y social. Las áreas para experimentar la naturaleza, o espacios de juego que incluyan únicamente elementos naturales, en lugar de elementos de juego construidos, ayudan a fomentar el desarrollo infantil. Este artículo analiza los efectos de tres áreas para experimentar la naturaleza en un área metropolitana, en comparación con tres parques de juegos que actúan como espacios control. En un diseño cuasiexperimental, se realizaron observaciones conductuales a lo largo del año 2017 sobre los comportamientos de juego y la autonomía de los niños, que jugaron bien en áreas para experimentar la naturaleza, bien en los parques de control. Los resultados muestran que, en las áreas para experimentar la naturaleza, el juego de los niños tiene un mayor nivel de complejidad que en los parques urbanos. Las frecuencias de juego en áreas para experimentar la naturaleza son menores que en los parques. La conducta autónoma, medida ARTICLE HISTORY
