Old people's playground - what should be in it?


Recommended Posts

That's because there's no fighting allowed on National Trust property.:)

 

Man, I've seen some trrible punch-ups, little old grannies throwing rock buns, specially sharpened scones, knitting needles at 20 paces, and all that over the fact that we....er....they got a different colour ticket.

THey've brilliant exercise 'playgounds' for old people in China, with lots of simple but fun things to get the blood pumping - my favourite were sorta like cross-trainers that you swung on, I loved 'em! Of course, over there you see the old peeps out in the parks socialising and exercising at ridiculous o'clock in the morning, something I doubt you'd find happening over here...

 

Regardless, I doubt I'll ever be too old to enjoy swings, you can never have too many about the place, IMO!

I am intrigued by an item in the latest issue of 'In touch with Sheffield Homes'

'Some ideas currently being considered are:

Encouraging older people to be more active by providing a secure environment for an older person's play area'

 

So what might be in this play area, adult size swings and slides perhaps?

A sand pit and paddling pool?

 

Anyone have any more ideas?

 

Old people:hihi:
