THE IDEA Taking a Dragon's Den style approach to learning, the playground design company have come up with an idea that will offer fantastic educational benefits. Getting children socially involved in a classroom environment isn't the easiest of tasks. However, when fun is introduced into the classroom, it makes everything so much more exciting. They’d like to see children working in pairs or teams to develop a unique timber play resource. The idea can evolve around anything a child desires, so there are lots of play scenarios to consider. Whether it's a product for Messy Play, Construction Play, Sensory or something totally different, Newby Leisure want to see it. For some inspiration, check out the range of products on their website here. HOW TO ENTER Email: [email protected] for an information pack on the campaign containing a 'how to' guide.
