Planet U V

So many magic moments from yesterday's Planet UV at Norwich Puppet Theatre. Watching two brothers playing with shredded paper for nearly half an hour was well worth the spectacular art installation called "Mess" that was created as result of these children playing! 

One grandparent, that was there with their grandchild, said " It's lovely seeing children being allowed to
just play with stuff, no learning objectives as such but they are learning loads! " 

A childminder who brought some children along said it was the best pre-school workshop she had been to and has booked for the next one in December!

I am of course immensely proud to get such feedback but it's not everyone's cup of tea to have such open ended play. And it does look like chaos to the untrained eye, but on closer inspection everybody was exploring, inventing, experimenting and playing at their own pace and in their own ways. 

Many thanks to Norwich Puppet Theatre who have encouraged me to deliver these creative play sessions. I'm really looking forward to the
next ones!
