A NOTE FROM YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi everyone!
Here are the links to some of the types of wire we discussed during the Videochat, as well as the pliers I use with children ages 4+. As I was washing dishes tonight, I remembered that this kind of colander is great with wire, and if you were to combine it with Twisteez, it could be an experience that includes exploration/combination AND taking the materials apart for the next day - like we would at a sensory table, or with magnatiles, legos, etc.
Please keep in touch! And I'm wishing all of you a joyful spring season of exploration with this awesome material!
Warmly,
Robin
