We made our first visit to 'GAP' this week after a number of attempts over the last few months, all of which failed due to napping.. Anyway, that seems to be becoming a thing of the past for Isaiah and so we are not usually bound by related time constraints at the moment as Jeremy will sleep anywhere at this stage :)
The visit was arranged by the Merseyside home educators network and all credit to them for this fabulous find! We hire the whole place so get it all to ourselves. I never knew it was there, tucked away between the railway line and Garston library. There's also an indoor area with hockey hall and softplay but we didn't venture in there as we prefer the outdoors whenever possible, plus it was a lovely day that we wanted to make the most of with it being October!
We made a grand entrance down the steep slide, which is set into the earth down the hill into the lower area of the two-level playground where there are various wooden climbing apparatas and a crocodile made from a painted fallen tree! There's also a tunnel cut into a natural earth mound.. So, generally a fun space to explore :) Isaiah enjoyed himself on the hammock and playing in the outdoor sandpit, and we went home with the inevtably acquired stick :)
We also had a lovley time back at Greenbank Park this week, among other things. Isaiah and his little friend had a good run around the walled garden, looking for fish in the pond and posting pebbels in the postbox (I'm not sure if I should allow that but I don't really see the harm!?!)..
