Blocks for the Sandpit


If you read my blog regularly you will know that we just got a new nature based playground at our school and we are all enjoying playing outside no matter what the weather is like. I am trying to incorporate as many natural products for the children to explore, investigate and play with in our new playground. I picked up some wood from the local school recycling shop and thought I would make some blocks for the children to use in the outdoor area. The children played with these in the sandpit and they promoted a lot of imaginative play.



As we were talking about farms I thought I would continue the theme outside. 


The farmhouse door (or castle door, or house door, or stable door...)



Another project that I am contemplating making to sell - the story of my life!
I'd love some feedback.

  2. LOVE these! Did you draw them right on or use stamps? You should definitely make these to sell. :)
