Hi All, Just creating this thread after speaking with @sabtab about using the space with young children in tow. We were wondering if there might be good times of the week to use the space at the same time. Maybe support each other in nipping off to do dangerous jobs while the kids huddle in the pla…

We have a playpen, and some longer term ‘plans’ to make the social area child friendly and secure – just waiting for someone to take it on as a project.

I’m trying to organise a regular child friendly space/event. I’d be happy to turn it into a very open, bring your child to the space session. I think at this stage it’s just about trying things out to see what works! Me and @emuboy will be hosting a child friendly electronics focused session tomorr…

Also happy for anyone who wants to be part of organising it and helping host/maybe taking turns with child supervision :slight_smile:

Also, to keep this on topic I think I should add, I’m happy to come to the space some Fridays to be sociable and help with child supervision. I can come on my own during the morning or later around 4 or so with my 8 year old!

Spot the three year old. No, two at the time! [slms-xmas2016-19-DSC_0534]

Has @frasco been lying to us about his age all the time?

Also: summer holidays are approaching.

Ok it’s good to know there is interest! Will come back with suggestions for things! Have a 6 year old who wants to make a robot, and an almost 2 year old who wants to break things her sister makes so could be interesting… :slight_smile:
