A beautifully illustrated scene bursting with shades of green, glistening white snow and that magical blues of the winter sky. The scent of pine fills the cold winter’s air. Pick a tree and make it yours, what will you add? Bells, baubles, looseparts, garlands? Or perhaps some wildlife will visit your tree.
Some ideas for play could include;
- Small world play with some festive figures, winter animals
- Decorate the trees
- Use as a back drop and inspiration for some festive storytelling
- Pair it with festive books for some bookish play
- Take the cloth outside, decorate with nature or wear as a cape on winter walks
- Chuck on some snow or ice for some messy play
- Hang over a play frame to create a festive den or grotto
- Incorporate the cloth into your arts and crafts, cut out snowflakes and create play dough decorations to add to the cloth.
- Swaddle dolls with the cloth
- You could even wrap presents in your cloth using the art of Furoshiki
A fantastic open-ended resource, that inspires fun & learning through self-directed play. Children can dance with it, let it blow in the wind, tie it on a stick, have a bath with it, use it for a picnic or even hang it on the wall as a piece of art with the handy stitched in hanging hooks. The list really could go on!
