Possible Play Yards
= (By Katharine Beebe)
The readers of these articles do
not need to be convinced of the i'm
portance and educational value of
children's play. Among the intelli-
gent parents of today it is now large
ly question of ways and means.
Play apparatus such as slides, see
saws, swings and sand boxes are be-
5ng purchased and set up in yards
and gardens on every side, and most
schools are now well equipped with
such devices. This provision for oc-
cupation is very good as far as
1t goes, but it does not go far enough.
An observer of children at play
knows that the usual types of appa-
ratus furnish them many well occu-
pied hours, but it is a common occur
renee for these expensive articles
to be deserted for the street, the va
cant lot, the building in process of
construction arund the corner, the
forbidden pond or the lake. How can
We add to the attraction of the home
yard so as to increase the number of
hours of contended play and decrease
those undesirable wanderings? To
meet this demand | offer the sugges-
ton which comes to me from my OBJ
servation of a school in my vicinity.
In the ground surrounding the build
ing there is a so-called construction
zone. a strip of land where any child
or group of children may work ao-
cording to inclination. Garden tools.
hammers, nails and boards of vari-
Gus sizes were furnished Within Il
few months variety of houses, huts,
tents and other nameless contrivanc-
es appeared, each one representing
hours of honest effort and moments
OF great satisfaction to the little
carpenter who had constructed it.
Last spring one of my neighbors
turned over a tract of land in ner
yard to the boys for constructive
purposes and their entire vacation
! was devoted to the excavation of a
lake into which flowed a river having
its source under a distant hose, con
nection. 1t was September before
the water could be turned in and the
building of RATS begun.
If the parents of young children
will give them paving blocks, boxes
boards. ladder, a pair of tresles. q
clothes line and pulleys, hammers
saws nails and shovels, the children
will do the rest But they should nor
be given too many tools at once.
In this day of combinations a com
munity play yard of this description
could easily be put into operation
/ 1t would be necessary to place III,
tools in the care of some responsible!
j l~person who could give them out an,
put them away. OF course ground S,
occupied would look like chaos com
i again, but the result would be wortl
the price. If the chosen spot coul,
be surrounded by vine coyere,
fence or hedge of elder, willow O
other quick growing greenery, i
would probably be qualification I.
