At my most lovely school we embrace and explore the concept of ‘making children’s thinking visible’. It’s a lovely philosophy and in this exercise the kids were shown a picture of Charley Harper’s which they were encouraged to interperate using a variety of mediums. How amazing are these pictures? And these girls are only 5 years old J.

Pinaforte!

paper boat mobile

So a little while ago I made a lovely little mobile and someone bought it from me, that was niceJ Then some more people liked it too so they asked me to make more, and so I did. So here is the next one, it is called ‘the discovery’.  I love the way the boats float, as if they were each on their own little sea. They move so gently in the breeze and suggest the calmest of seas (and airs). Anyway, they go for R300 so if you’d like one please just let me know! Postage is free J
