Welcome To Your Silver Membership
You’re officially part of The Muddy Puddle Teacher® community
We’re so pleased to welcome you.
Your Silver Membership has been designed to make outdoor learning easier, more purposeful and much more achievable, whether you work in Early Years, KS1, KS2, SEND, alternative provision, wraparound care or home education.
You do not need a woodland, an expensive outdoor classroom or specialist equipment to get started. The Muddy Puddle Teacher® approach helps you make better use of the outdoor spaces and resources you already have.
From playgrounds and school fields to small yards and concrete spaces, there are always meaningful ways to take learning outdoors.

You can choose resources that suit the age, ability and needs of the children you work with.
Do I need access to a woodland or large outdoor space?
No. The Muddy Puddle Teacher® approach is designed to work in real educational settings.
You can use the resources in playgrounds, yards, gardens, school fields, concrete spaces and local outdoor areas.
You do not need a forest, expensive equipment or a purpose-built outdoor classroom.
Do I need to be Forest School trained?

The Muddy Puddle Teacher® approach focuses on helping educators take curriculum learning, focused teaching and purposeful play outdoors using their existing spaces and resources.

You may need to adapt some activities depending on the number of children, their ages, additional needs and the outdoor space available.
Can I share the resources with other staff members?
Resources may be used according to the licence attached to your membership.
A personal membership is intended for the named member. Schools, nurseries or organisations that want several staff members to access the materials should ensure they have the appropriate organisational membership or licence.
Resources must not be shared publicly, uploaded to other websites, resold or distributed outside the terms of your membership.
Can I print the resources?
Yes. You can download and print the resources included in your membership for your permitted educational use.
You can also save resources to your device while your membership is active, subject to the membership terms and resource licence.

New content may be linked to curriculum subjects, seasons, celebrations, outdoor play, SEND, wellbeing and current areas of interest in education.
Do Silver members receive certificates?
Certificates are generally linked to the completion of eligible online courses or accredited training.
As these are available through the Gold and Ultimate memberships, Silver Membership does not usually include training certificates.
Upgrade to Gold for online courses or Ultimate for accredited outdoor learning training.
I cannot access a resource. What should I do?
First, check that you are signed in using the email address connected to your membership.
You can also try refreshing the page, signing out and signing back in, or opening the website in a different browser.
