About me

I am Dr Vicky Cave and I work to create places, spaces, experiences and materials where children and their families can play and learn. I develop ideas using a range of tools, including workshops with the target audience; brainstorming and refining ideas with clients, designers, fabricators, trustees; and evaluating and reforming ideas, concepts and designs as we go along. find out more

“Vicky’s in-depth knowledge of the playful learning field allied to her extensive exhibition development experience make her an invaluable part of the creative team.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/15/arts/artsspecial/obesity-and-other-targets-of-childrens-museums.html?_r=2&ref=todayspaper I agree and like the references to what’s going on in children’s museums in the States, but object to the fact that they refer to children’s museums as places which are just about fun. There’s lots of places with lots of learning going on through play.
The playground in Gloucester – progress
I have started a diary blog for the playground project in Gloucester. Click here to see what’s going on and to follow the blog. It will be thoughts and ideas as I go along about the collaborative design process with children and the school.
