    I'd say my active world tray adjustable stand. I use it every day!

    I've had a few craft things, fabric crayon and pens, stick on eyes...the children love them!! A couple of years ago I got 2 wobble boards...they have been great, my lo love them and so do the bigger kids at youth club!!
    Also had hoops, balls, a parachute, big dino feet, a dark den...another favourite!
    I too, am wondering how they are going to do it next year, if at all?!

    In the past years, my tuff spot trays never got enough vouchers for the stands though and my stepping stones are also well used for indoor active play when it's too horrible outside

    not many vouchers this year so got some small bits - watering cans, mark making trays, a flashing light up ball thing etc
    Happy to be back with the Greenies
