BRILLIANT week at Baltic Street Adventure play to round up our activities this Semester. Live build project making treehouses, balancing beams, climbing ropes, and even digging beds and planting seeds for veggies! Also some wonderful #reuse : chair handles become ‘steps’ up the tree trunks, and lovely soft thick anchor ropes from shipping fixed between trees. Happy children! (big kids and little kids!)
