The Importance of Creative Play

At Playground Markings Direct we recognize that creative play takes a playground to the next dimension. It is important that children are able to express themselves with play and use their imagination to its full potential. Allowing a child to create something for themselves will boost their confidence while allowing them to explore and develop their senses; using different media and equipment. We supply many different types of playground equipment to encourage and nurture creative play such as activity panels, magnetic games, musical Instruments, playhouses, sand and water play, trains, boats, ships and shops.

Pathway or Driveway, Sir?

Need a pathway or driveway that looks fantastic then resin bound stone might be the answer. Resin bound stone is a hard wearing surface which involves stone being coated in a resin which when hardens makes a solid parking or walking surface. Resin bound stone shouldn’t be confused with resin bonded stone which is a cheaper less effective process involving resin being pasted to The ground and the stone scattered on top. Resin bonded stone simply doesn’t last as long.

Pathways to guide people in a certain direction are what resin bound stone are all about in public areas. Hospitals, car parks, health centres, museums, and town centres are just some of the many places that can be easily improved with resin bound stone.

Pirate Ships..Matey

Pirate ships have been of interest to children for generations sparking imagination and adventure. Pirates of the Caribbean fueling this even further in recent years. PMD have created a flotilla of pirate ships designed to suit school budgets giving kids the experience to spark there imaginations further. Our pirate ships aren’t just ships, they can be transformed( by the children’s minds) into anything they like, for example the rear compartment is enclosed with an entrance and porthole windows, this can be quickly transformed into a house within a single thought.

Big and sturdy these ships should sail the seas (technically playgrounds!) for years. Many schools have noticed the playtime behaviour changes because the children feel engaged by the environment. To find out more about PMD pirate ships browse our pirate ships or call the office on 01477 533555.
