Notices a wicket in children’s recreation (6)
I believe the answer is:
seesaw
'children's recreation' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'notices a wicket' is the wordplay.
'notices' becomes 'sees' (to notice is to observe or see).
'wicket' becomes 'w'.
'sees'+'a'+'w'='SEESAW'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for seesaw that I've seen before include "Move back and forth" , "Recreation ground item" , "Playground equipment for kids" , "Pivoted amusement" , "Piece of playground equipment" .)
