This hard hat photo shoot was a lot of fun. The crochet mining set is a great way to capture young people in fun photos. Caves, mining museums or themed playgrounds provide great backdrops to the crochet mining set. We took some friends to Whit’s End in Colorado Springs for some fun and photos.
Hard Hat Photo Shoot – Playtime Unfolds
Let’s watch their playtime in action.

Cover your ears, it’s time to blast the dynamite!
We’re happy to report that there were no injuries during the mining excursion. Everyone had a blast.
