HahaHopscotch is about being proud to take the sack races, marbles, conkers and chalk-dust of yesterday’s playtimes and give them a cheeky relevance for modern funlovers
It all started with my work as a landscape historian – whilst working in the wonderful world of garden history, I began to focus on play in historic parks and gardens, and being bombarded with accounts of gleeful grubsters on wooden slides and beautiful bairns making dens began to leave its mark.

Now I love to use my research to take the best of play from the past and adapt it for HahaHopscotch to give modern funlovers the freckly, dishevelled and forgivably nostalgic playtimes that we so love … and a smidgeon of interest in history too.
