Hack Our Play
A co-creation initiative by preschool children, educators, parents and members of the community to design their very own play space.
Over the course of eight months, Participate in Design collaborated with St. James Church Kindergarten to hack the playground at the kindergarten’s Gilstead Road campus. Children were encouraged to be creative and solve problems as they were given freedom to construct, dismantle and rebuild moveable structures made of materials not commonly found in typical playgrounds. At the same time, educators and parents enhanced their teaching and parenting skills as they facilitated learning through play. Everyday materials like bottles, ropes, tyres, crates and even kitchenware were used to create diverse play experiences.
