Playing Outside

The Shop of Possibilities sits within an estate on the borders of Peckham and Camberwell, it's quite a busy residential area but we are lucky to have some lovely outdoor green spaces to play around in.
 
With the release of a new documentary Project Wild Thing at the weekend, we thought we'd highlight some of our outdoor play, showing the kids getting a bit messy, digging around in the dirt and playing with water.
 
Making a splash

 



Pouring


Trying to collect it up again

Digging...

...and pouring...

...and filling...



...right to the brim!


Finding another place to dig!
 
There are many reasons as to why children don't play outside as much these days, so we hope that through supporting unstructured play within our project, we can begin to address this and inspire the children and families we meet to get outside more and get a bit messy from time to time!
