The Best Kindergarten You've Ever Seen

No, not mine.  :)
 

This is a kindergarten in Japan.  At a training workshop a couple of months ago, the speaker told us about it so I looked it up.  You need to watch this TED talk video! 







I can't decide what I think about this.  At first it kind of reminded me of a zoo.  I love the idea of children getting to explore.  But I would worry about the weather!  And as I watched, I found myself asking, "where is the STUFF?"  We all know how important STUFF is to a classroom.  Where is the curriculum?  The supplies???  How do they teach kids in an environment like that??? 

What do you think?  Good idea?  Bad idea?  Do you have questions too?
