The girls and Oma and Opa and I went to a place called the adventure playground. It’s quite different than most of the “safe” playground type places one usually finds.
It’s in the woods and the kids are all given a tool box with a saw, hammer, nails and a few other important items. There are piles of scrap wood around and off they go to create.
The woods were already filled with structures and so they decided to add on to one they found. Julia added more floor to the the second story and a ramp, and Kayla worked on a ladder and added more supports.
Kayla ran out of time to finish her ladder all the way, but we all learned a bit about the best way to put things like ladders together. Pretty fun day.
I think they had a great time and even though all of the supports seem a bit rickety, we still let them climb up there.No way I’m going.
