Today the children have enjoyed being creative in the loose parts area. We explored different patterns including numbersâŚ
ShapesâŚ
and some letters too…
âI want to do a S. Thatâs in my nameâ
âThe pipe cleaners will work, because theyâre straight lines.â
Some children even loved making something completely different all together, like the Scotland flag!
âthe peg is for the wee stick on the flag. How can I do the triangles for the inside? I know, why donât I squish the pipe cleaners?â
The children loved being creative with their patterns, and showed really great problem solving skills when choosing their materials. They were able to recognise patterns that included straight lines as well as more curved lines, and choose their loose parts to explore this. Great work everyone!
What can you make out of loose parts at home? We would love to see your ideas.
