Monsters of Necklace Park

An idea that came to us yesterday whilst we were thinking about our disorienteering map was about monsters. And where would the monsters of necklace park live? what would they look like? what would they eat?
I thought a 'monster map and spotting guide' might be a fun thing for kids - big and small alike - to create.
Any thoughts?

Possible Primary School involvement in 'Mapping the Necklace'

As a teacher in a local village primary school I was very interested to hear about the 'Necklace Park'. I, and others in my school, would like to participate in some way, possibly by taking our children to parts of the park and exploring these from a child's perspective. A 'Children's Guide' or web page may be a possible development from their visits;for teachers we could perhaps aim to produce a Topic pack, which would provide a cross-curricular resource for KS2 teachers.

For somebody who has been involved in the field of children's play for 35 years the opportunity to put play on the Necklace Park Map was too exciting an opportunity to be missed!

Water... trees... open spaces... fallen logs... sand and mud... meadows... fallen leaves... old bridges...A winding river with lots of 'loose parts' on each of its banks... A playground with a difference!

Take a look with a fresh set of eyes and see the fantastic playground all around us. Come and join in the fun and share your ideas about mapping play!
