Let’s make some spider webs by winding wool around sticks. You can use wool, string or ribbon to make these webs or anything similar you have at home.

Do let us know how your webs turn out! Share photos or comment on our posts telling us how you did the activities, using our hashtag #30daysFroebel

Understanding and interacting with nature gives a balance and stability to what is symbolic and what is real. Children can use what they have experienced to make and remake meaning. This constant to and fro between what is real and what is symbolic (or pretend) fosters the creativity of the child, and there is connection between the ‘inner and the outer life’. (Tina Bruce 2017)
