Kids are going to love this enchanting wooden playground


I saw this picture on Pinterest a while ago with no description whatsoever, so I did a quick image search on Google to find out more about it. Turns out it's a children's playground in Australia, which is part of Canberra's National Arboretum.

Designed by award-winning landscape architect Taylor Cullity Lethlean, the Pod Playground is crafted entirely from local wood. It features giant acorn cubby houses, climbing walls and ladders, tunnel slides, and kaleidoscopes, among other things. The park opened a couple of years ago, and kids meeting nature is exactly what it's all about.

Bats, Cats, and Dancing Skeletons

It’s now been fifty-eight years since Walt Disney died of lung cancer, and as a great way to remember his legacy is watch this short film he did in 1929. It’s truly impressive, and you can still see the impact he made on animation today.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Acorn-shaped meditation pod

Created by LFZ Studio , this giant acorn in France is a cool space to escape the digital deluge. For some, the wooden pod is a temporary escape from reality. For others, it’s a nice place to take a nap. And for a select few, it’s a nerve-wracking dive into claustrophobia. The pod blends perfectly with the forest and the gentle rustling of leaves and the distant chirping of birds create a natural soundtrack for meditation. In this sanctuary, time seems to slow down, allowing for a deeper connection with oneself and nature. |h/t: Design Boom |
