Playground Activities

Welcome to Playground Activities These animations are original works created by the children in my Kindergarten class. Without the help of Crispin Wood this project would not have been possible. He spent countless hours producing and editing this wonderful collection of animations. Sarah Smith |

| Hi! I'm Crispin Wood. A long time ago, on March 29, 2005, I went to the Brackett Elementary School to talk with Ms. Smith's class about animation. Ms. Smith's class sat, crisscross applesauce, and listened very carefully. And then asked questions. Then, there was an assignment. During work board, each member of Ms. Smith's class was to draw a picture of him or herself doing their favorite thing on the playground in the spring. So that's what they did. All 20 of Ms. Smith's students drew pictures and then recorded audio to go along with the pictures. And they did it all in only one hour. Once they were done, I took the drawings, and the audio, and some liberties, and made 20 short animations. Here are the results. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| These animations require the Flash plug-in. Most machines come loaded with this, but if for some reason yours doesn't have it, you can download it here. For those on dial-up, some anmations may take a minute or so to load... a few of them are as large as 300k. Most are less than 200k, though. |
