In this examination paper I?m using the qualitative method: phenomenographic analysis to present twenty educated and working pre-school teachers opinions about being outdoors in Swedish pre-school. The purpose is to describe the variation between different pre-school teachers? opinions, not to focus on wrong or right. The paper starts with a review over the opinions presented by the literature on the subject. After that I present the category system I?ve created based on the answers I?ve got from the interviews with the pre-school teachers. The category system have four main headlines: Physical and psychological records of being outdoors, the outdoor environment, being outdoors and the outdoor environment in the Child?s perspective and being outdoors in the pedagogues perspective. In The ending chapter ?Discussion/Analysis? I compare the literature with the pre-school teachers? opinions and make the conclusions that good conditions for a qualitative time outdoors are: attending pedagogues manage to see possibilities in the outdoor environment, be conscious about what you are doing and why, never stress and have patience. Overall it doesn?t matter if you are indoors or outdoors you must always plan, have commitment and be full of happiness.
