It has been some time since I hosted a Pop-Up in my community so when my church friends approached me to help out with a cafe style event, I jumped at the idea of having a Pop-Up Adventure Playground. It’s new and unfamiliar territory to these folks, but I assured them that it would be great, and I would be there to guide them every step of the way.
The doors opened at 10:30 and families trickled in to see what was happening. While the children played at the Pop-Up, the adults relaxed with tea or coffee. Every so often, they would poke their heads into the play site to find that they weren’t really needed, but enjoyed observing the play on the periphery. Here are some photos of the morning Pop-Up:
There were robots, creatively made.
Little friends stacking little tubs.
A lot of small construction work, with fancy tubes.
Some large construction too. And scissors were very popular.
This might be a robot friend – very well decorated.
There was colouring inside boxes. Because colouring inside a box is just as good as anywhere else.
And mum said it was okay, so the creations were taken home.
