Why does my baby love the outdoors?

Seriously, it's like magic. He's fussing up a storm and the moment we step outside he's calm and even happy. Does anyone know why? He's 4 1/2 months old and has been like this since about 1 month old.
 
There are various reasons why most babies love outdoors. The reasons are things such as: a change in temperature on their face, fresh air in their lungs, changes in scenery, different scents and different sounds. My grandchildren love to go outdoors and my son did as well when was young
 
They like a change of scenery. Both my kids are the same way. Anytime we are having a meltdown, I open the door and "ta-da." Use this and other like techniques to your advantage.
 
haha my son is the same. when i cant get out i put him in the pram sit him by an open window and pretend he is outside lol.
for him its the change of scenery and the open space, i also think the fresher air helps calm him (when he is upset i blow on his forehead and it calms him so maybe the outside air has the same magic).

im glad if all else fails the great out doors is there to help get my son calm :) :) :)

LOL, my son does the same thing. He's almost 5 months.
I think it has to do with all the senses triggered by being outside. New sounds, new sights, new smells, etc. They are taking in so many things at once that they forget they are upset. LOL.
 
Some babies apparently feel better in cooler moister air, which you may be getting outside. It can be a breathing thing, especially if he's been feeling sick, but it may just feel better overall. I know i prefer the smell of the outdoors rather than indoors, and its usually less dusty, so maybe he prefers it for that?
