:)Thanks for the info. We are putting in two basketball hoops with one shorter than the other for the smaller kids. I looked online for some of the games you suggested and found this site that has stencils for four square and hopscotch as well as the US map.
If you would like to check it out here is the site.:cool:
Last night, doing a web search for "thermoplastic coatings" I found a lot of interesting items for playground hard-surface areas. Most of the companies were overseas, but looking through their catalogs might give you some good ideas.... games, maps, school mascots, compass points, etc.
This is a link to one of the catalogs ... very bright and colorful designs, and I'm sure there are local companies doing this. (Not sure about costs.)
Hopscotch, 4 square, tic-tac-toe, plenty of space for jump rope, buckets of sidewalk chalk and area to draw. Adjustable basketball hoops are nice too, so you can bring them down for the little ones to play too.
We are having our playground redone due to remodeling of the school. Does anyone have any ideas for games to go on the playground? We will put in a basketball hoop but need all age games for the blacktop.
