The Wonder of Collections

🌟 Lots of lovely ā€˜collections’!🌟 Children naturally collect things. We’ve all been on walks with children that end with pockets full (theirs and ours!) of stones, sticks, feathers and shells. 🐚 🌳 Providing children with ā€˜collections’ of items appeals to this interest further and naturally allows their innate ā€˜schemas’ to grow. Any collection will encourage the children to naturally sort, categorise and order, and by comparing one item to another, they are using and developing a wealth of skills. Children’s inquisitive nature and creativity will take this play further when the collection will become a ā€˜loose part’ and all of a sudden you’ll see patterns and shapes appearing. Here at ā€˜Little Wonders’ we have always loved a collection. ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø From our Grandparent’s array of china bells to our childhood chess sets, we are always on the lookout for a new ā€˜collection’. We have found them here, there and everywhere! Our collection of shoes is a personal favourite. An added dimension to this set is that some are in pairs and some are not. ā™Ÿ 🄿 šŸ‘ž šŸ‘Ÿ However, these gatherings don’t just have to be of the weird and wonderful. Something as every day as a spoon can begin a marvellous collection. šŸ„„ šŸ„„ šŸ„„ If you’re home schooling right now : 🌟 Try challenging your ā€˜little wonderer’ to make a collection of their own and see what they find! šŸ’« šŸ”
