perhaps you can find the one or other hint from my analemmatic sundial, which I have built with children in 1996?

Hello,
From your experience, what is the best analemmatic sundial size to be set up at a children playground? I was thinking about a width of 5.4 meters, the base consisting of a row of 4 concrete pavement tiles (40x40 cm) and 12 other smaller tiles for the hours. Should their surface be more smooth or more rugged? Also, can you please share some tips and tricks on how to mark the months and hours? I was thinking about applying acrylic paint thorough some PVC homemade stencils, but am not sure whether it will withstand traffic. Do I need primer or lacquer? In any case, something cheap would be great :)
Your insight is always appreciated.
