My ever-resourceful hubby is building a play place from the branches that came out of the huge hedge that we chopped down last year.... he's hammered them in to the grass really well in a sort of spiral, all sticking upright, and we've ordered some willow twigs to stick in between them so it will grow at some point and be a living den!! the idea is that the kids can weave things in and out of the sticks and hang their creations from the twigs at the top. it's a bit hard to describe but really lovely. I've got a packet of wild grass seeds to scatter round the base that will ahve a variet of lovely seed heads on them.... we don't have the room for a big climbing frame so this is our imaginative answer to the need for one.. just hope the kids don't laugh!!!!!:laughing:

:laughing: I thought that too! My garden's a bit sparce at the mo so I thought I'd have a look! Never mind, the site looks really good - I'm sure my dd will love having a go at that!

Jumpinjen, living dens are awesome. I've been thinking about doing one that is teepee shaped. I don't think the kids will laugh at all, I think they will be really impressed and excited. And good for you on recycling and using earth friendly resources!:thumbsup:

i've just had great fun with that!! James will love it.

Thanks Angel
