Playground Games 2019/2020

Children are now introduced to televisions, computers, and phones at earlier ages, which now seem to dominate their lives. More and more children are growing up inactive, due to the overuse of these devices and we have somehow forgotten that play is a major part of a child’s development. Playground games are a fun and simplistic way of keeping the children in our community active, as well as furthering them to learn essential life skills, such as communicating with others and being creative. The project itself will open up more opportunities for young people to volunteer and gain necessary experience, needed to help them progress personally and professionally.A short clip of Heritage Lottery Fund Oral History documentary film edit completed which explored the history of traditional playground games in the UK by CENTRE SPOT C.I.C to help young people aged between 8-11 years to learn about their own heritage in the Black Country.‬
