| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In urban areas of Japan, Children's kindergartens and nursery schools incorporate to take a walk into their daily activities no matter with their playground attached or not. It is considered as one of the important activities of outdoor activity. In terms of children's physical activity, walking to a destination is important but the street environment with various characteristics might b resource for children's perception and cognitive development. In this study, we conducted fieldwork on walking scenes at a certified kindergarten from an ecological perspective and based on changes in gait and posture, and hand contact, children are encouraged to pay attention to the nature of their environment. Our investigation explained that children are highly sensitive to the microscopic features of the street environment and it lead to reexamine the meaning of activities outside of childcare facilities.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
散歩経路に埋め込まれた認知的資源を子どもがどのように発見するのかという点について、生態的手法を取り入れることによって本研究が提供した身体の微少な動きに対応する微視的データは新しい学術的知見になる。
また、現在、我が国では認可保育園，認定こども園の数は増加しつつあるが、都市部を中心とした園では必ずしも十分な園庭を確保するのは困難である。このような状況下で、保育施設外での活動は、保育において重要な位置を占めることになるが、子ども達の移動経験に伴う認知・知覚・行為発達から街を評価するという視点は、地域に開かれた子育ての推進においても重要な意義を持つと言える。
