Tinker Tray

Looking after our third teacher, providing beautiful resources for the children to explore and tinker with, not only are these natural loose parts beautiful but they offer children texture, scent and the ability to use them for how they choose, we are inviting the children to come over and investigate. They may line the items up, stack them and build with them, create pictures, sculptures, count them, sort them or transport the loose parts from place to place.

We have provided the resources and the children will lead the play, the 3rd teacher, our environments should be thought provoking, interesting, spark curiosity, creative thinking and expression through providing beautiful open ended resources for the children to investigate, explore and navigate their way through play.
