How to Bring Fun Back to Recess Ideas Needed Hi Readers Lets help Bree L. Dear fellow Free Rangers,I am thrilled to tell you that my daughters school is re vamping recess to make it FUN Thats right, after years of cracking down on things like tag no touching, someone might get hurt or feel violated, cartwheels someone might get kicked, touch football someone might take it too far and tackle another player, etc. It started with our principal asking parents how to make recess more safe and productive. When another Free Ranger and I were the only parents who showed up to the strategy meeting with articles, research studies and statistics on the importance of free play in childhood development, we got the support we were looking for to re define safe as Not activelyintentionally harming people or property and productive as Kids playing on their own without adult intervention. Victory Now, we have two weeks to come back to the school with a plan and a list of things we think the playground needs. Big equipment is too expensive, so no redesigning the play structure. But  we can think about getting small things like more balls, a boombox for music, hula hoops, etc. The principal himself even thought of buying some sort of targets to hang on the softball backstop for snowball season, realizing that rather than banning throwing snow balls, we should provide an appropriate outlet. So, I am coming to you to ask for other suggestions, ideas and memories of your favorite childhood recess activities. Ive been asked to talk with the students, but the truth is, most have been so sheltered that they simply dont know what the options are. For myself, I remember the giant cement tunnels at my school. We used them as bunkers, and we also played games like red rover and chicken on the top of them. We also loved jumping off the back hill with umbrellas to see if we could fly like Mary Poppins in a good wind storm. Umbrellas are not currently allowed at our school, someone might poke an eye out. Oh, and climbing. We loved climbing. Everything and anything.
