Design
Starting a Website with Sheep
28th February 2007
What follows is a set of ideas for content based around the subject "Mary Had A Little Lamb."
Each idea I thought of has been followed with a link to a current example on the internet. Some of the ideas are a little odd, but the examples are very real! Each site example has different content and also widely different designs.
- Idea #1 :
favourite nursery rhymes collection, history of rhymes etc.
http://www.rhymes.org.uk/ - Idea #2 :
a personal blog based around farm life.
http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/ - Idea #3 :
recordings and recitations of nursery rhymes
http://history.sandiego.edu/gen/recording/mary.html - Idea #4 :
promotional site for the sale of British Lamb, recipes etc.
http://www.allbritishfood.com/Lamb/lambhome.php - Idea #5 :
photograph collection of sheep.

Here's one idea for which I didn't find an example:
- Starting with the illustrated poem, childrens' contributions: drawings and paintings, photographs, and other nursery rhyme illustrations.
However, there is a version by adult artists: http://www.fandmpublications.co.uk/pages/nursery.htm
Still, an opportunity to create a brand new web site that hasn't been done before... something that's quite rare.
