We have been super busy today at the sewing area making a variety of fabulous creations. A group of children have now mastered using a needle after lots of practice, they are now able to join materials together and begin making their own creations. The children have been using technology for inspiration, drawing out their design, cutting and sewing together, further developing their fine motor and hand eye co ordination skills.
“I want to make a cuddly elephant.”
“I did it, can you take a picture to show my mum.”
“I’m making a love heart pillow for my mum.”
“I’m very good at drawing love hearts.”
A few of the children have been creating models at the tinker table and continuing on with their design at the sewing area, using their imagination and creativity.
“I’m going to measure it on the bed.”
“One pillow is a rectangle and the other is a square.”
“My toys at home now have a bunk bed.”
We have also been having lots of fun practicing our sewing techniques at the sewing table, Great job boys 👍
“I’m going to cut a big bit of wool.”
Our sewing area is a calming place for the children to sit and relax, plan, get creative and have discussions with each other, developing their communication skills.
