40: Make a giant 40 and take a picture

Make a giant 40 and take a picture. Help us celebrate by making a giant 40. What way will you do it? Big bits of paper or card cut to shape and decorated? Loose parts arranged on the ground in the shape of a 40? Forty buns arranged & then ready to eat? You could do this with anything you find : natural materials such as leaves in autumn, sand on the beach and of course children lying on the ground. We would love to see what you make.

We would love to see what you make.
