They'd run and they'd laugh, play hide and go seek...

Do you remember the first time you tried to teach a child to play ‘hide and seek’? When looking for them, you might have said in a sing-song voice, ‘Where are you?’ Did they at that point, jump out and shout, ‘I’m here!!’ Much laughter…

Whether it’s hide or seek, throw and catch, running races, garden cricket, tiddlywinks or leapfrog, or simply reading a book in the shade, gardens and parks offer wonderful opportunities for play. Spending time outside in nature, under the sky is exactly what little people should be doing (big people, too!). Make some joyful memories; get out and play.
