The market day was a success for our group. We had many people coming to our stall curious about what our tree was about. Some people dug straight into the shapes and started building while others stood back and admired the structure. After a little prompting though everyone who came to our stall had a turn at building. It seemed that all ages (from young children to adults)could enjoy playing. We had several people returning to our stall throughout the market day to have another go at building. The popularity of the game resulted in some exciting tree-building innovation, however at times when we felt it was getting so big that there could be a danger of it falling we removed a lot of the parts and put them back down for people to stack up once again. Pulling down the parts also helped show that it was an interactive structure as when it got too big we saw that people tended to touch it less as it seemed a bit daunting and more like a work of art than a game.
Some people got creative and came up with other ways of joining the pieces than using the slots. We thought this was great and encouraged this!
Overall it was a great day and we are all pleased with the outcome!
