What could be better than a day of playing.
It's Playday in the UK on August 2 and we are celebrating with 9 light-hearted scenes from the Echo archives.
Every child should have time to have fun, just like these little ones did in the past in Castletown, Grindon and Dawdon.
See how many faces you can recognise.
