I remember it involved a lot of transfer of water from the outside tap, while those not playing in the sand and water were climbing trees, running a shop… Hesitant children were being given literally a helping hand to overcome their fear of mud; more confident Wild Things were being guided towards a way of playing that was more inclusive; a small group were playing a game we had developed together called “1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – SMASH,” in which some children were waiting until five sandcastles had been built before they could jump up and down on them. All of these were, of course, of limited success: no single activity is likely to produce a piece of learning, perfectly formed and squeaky clean. Learning takes time, repetition, commitment from adult as well as child.
At the time – maybe as now – there was some debate about curriculum content, aims, a
