The Yard. Newcastle

We built The Yard for children to make, create and explore...

But one of my favourite things to watch is what happens with the adults.

Conversations that don't get interrupted every 30 seconds.
A hot coffee that's actually finished.
A chance to sit while children become completely absorbed in their own ideas.

School holidays can be busy. Sometimes everyone deserves a place to enjoy them.

Open throughout the holidays.

Most people see a short movie.

We see hundreds of tiny decisions.

Planning.
Problem solving.
Persistence.
Creativity.

I loved facilitating this workshop so much that I think we'll be adding another session next week.

🎥 Want to see the finished movie? We've shared the full animation in today's Stories.

Three children...
🛠️ one using a drill
🌬️ one painting with a leaf blower
🎨 one simply pouring paint

Same table.
Same materials.
Three completely different ideas.

That's exactly how we like it.

Holidays begin Monday.

For kids who need MORE than a playground.

The Yard is filled with:
• messy play
• potion making
• real tools
• loose parts
• water play
• creative exploration

The kind of adventure that’s hard to recreate at home.
Perfect for busy kids who love to move, build, mix, create and explore.

Open this week in Newcastle.
