Teach children how to weave

Here is a simple activity we can do with children. 

Please use this video to learn what you need to learn to then teach the children.  Please don't sit the child down with the ipad to learn from this video - they will be easily distracted and you may not even start. 

When you are engaged with your child and sharing in making something together your connection becomes stronger.  It is important the child sees you enjoying the process as much as them.

Enjoy!

 

If you liked the video and have started humming the song, here is a tutorial on how to sing it.

Weave and Spin - Lyrics

 

Weave and Spin, weave and spin

This is how our work beings,

Mend and heal, mend and heal

Take a dream and make it real

 

Strand by strand,

Hand over hand

Thread by thread

We weave our web
