Hats
When I was young everybody wore hats.
They were all at it.
A gentleman would wear a flat cap or a Trilby. Women had the strangest looking headwear, sometimes they looked like fruit cakes, sometimes like Minnie Mouse bows. My mother was particularly well known for one hat she wore for weddings and such that looked just exactly like a lettuce and another, a winter hat that could easily have been a Persian cat curled up asleep on her head.
A day trip to London sticks in my mind because the street seemed to be filled with city gents wearing pinstriped suits and bowler hats.
We don’t go in for that sort of thing so much these days, except for snuggly sensible hats on cold days or light soft ones that cast your own personal shade on sunny days. Oh and Easter bonnets and Christmas cracker crowns.
Yet you only have to put out an object in a Playkx session that can even remotely be worn on the head and exactly that will happen, over and over again. Each time as funny as the last.
So here is a chance to turn your saucepans and buckets, flowerpots and fruitbowls into haut couture.

You don’t have to if you don’t want to. We are not terribly formal. But if you fancy wearing a hat while we play together, it might be fun.
Here is a video about wearing hats by Playkx Playworker Jake Stevens.
He made the music too
