There is nowhere for them to play outside and their parents say they have no time to take them to the playground - not that the playground has the potential for that sort of activity. They need more adventure type playgrounds!catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663680578112260744.post-31873135373628321872014-09-29T16:20:01.323+09:302014-09-29T16:20:01.323+09:30At one time, we lived in a house in the country wh...At one time, we lived in a house in the country which had a largish garden with a rough bit behind bushes that was refderred to as the undergrowth. The children used to disappear in there for half a day at a time. At that stage they each had a coat, and what was called a scruffy-garden-jacket (last year's coat) that they could play in. My oldest thinks back and says that was paradise.<br />So many new-build houses have just a pocket handkerchief for a garden, with nowhere for the children to be out of sight and private. I feel very sorry for them.jeanfromcornwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10062674591619616456noreply@blogger.com
