Vans Upon a Time

A simple targeting activity with a choice of the size of the vans. It's a bit noisy!

Fireworks

Set off a firework by touching it. A new one will take its place. Quite noisy!

Popping Outside

Coloured balloons float up in the air. Can you pop them all? Choose the speed of the balloons.

Footballer

Touch the ball and the footballer will kick it round the park.

Tanks for all the Fish

Touch the fish as it weaves through the weed. Um... Restful!
