In the meld behind our
house the corn has
grown so tall that you can’t even see
over it any more. Once we walked

almost no plants. That’s our secret
hiding place! Nobody apart from
us knows about it, and sometimes
we have to look for ages to mnd
it because it’s so well hidden.
When we walk through the meld,
between the corn plants, we pull
our sleeves down over our hands
because the leaves have sharp
teeth on the edges. If you run
your mnger over them carefully
you can feel them …!

Sensory shower
Sensory leaves hang in
this trapezoid cabinet – a
three-dimensional curtain
to crawl through or hide
behind. Feeling the diffe-

such as artimcial leather,
neece or granules, is a
lot of fun – and is an ex-

There are acoustic
elements such as
squeakers or crinkle
foil to listen for. And
the small round mirror
creates a subtle
renecting effect.

“Each leaf feels different! Just when I think I’m about to grab something soft, it suddenly squeaks! And it’s a
cozy place to hide, too …!”
