FREE HELP WITH YOUR PTO MAP PROJECT. I'm a retired teacher and have been painting playground maps for the past 32 years. I have many good ideas to help you with your map project. This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Not sure if your still looking but there is a company that does color stencils. Their website is: Creative Pavement Stencils . They first appear expensive but I gave them a call and there stuff is really unique, easy to use and doesnt tear like paper stencils so you can re-use it. THeir stuff also doesnt need a striping machine and their stencils are 1-4 pieces, unlike Peaceful Playground ones that are like 15 peices for one game!

Good luck.

Telecom Pioneers has a program, I think they paint a map for you, maybe you pay for the paint?

(We had a very artistic mom freehand the map based on a kid's wooden puzzle.)

When you paste the link, it automoatically pulls in "title" coded by the webpage instead of what could be a URL several lines lines long. The title is what is shown in the blue title bar at the very top. So that's what EZ1 stencils called that page. (Not a very good naming.)

Due to some spamming issues, our hosts had a lot of the formatting features of the message boards turned off for awhile, so you may have gotten used to seeing the actual URL (web address). But now that those are back on, this is one of the automatic features.

Anyway- they offer Hopscotch, 4 Square, Computer Keyboard and Basketball Key (foul shot area) along with other maps.

You should e-mail from site and ask about any clearance items or further reduced offers.

Hope this helps!

If you didn't already order your stencils yet you should also check out

We purchased the funtastic 4 pack and these are the easiest one piece (thus the name) do it yourself (DIY) stencils anywhere on the market. Best part is they are not only reusable but can also be used indoors (multi-uses). PLUS you can share them with other local schools and even share the costs!

Checkout the website for more info and they do make custom orders.
We were on of the first to order the basketball key/foul shot which you should ask about if interested.
