Squirrels, Mon Oct 16

We introduced a craft today which was new to most of the Squirrels - soap carving. They were inspired by photos of finished expert pieces and immediately chose what they wanted to make. Getting to work carving they recognised that their soap might not turn out exactly how they wanted it to. This was okay for the Squirrels as their creations passed through phases where they may have been a car one moment and then after a few more chunks were taken away it was a boat, then it became something else. They enjoyed finding the objects in the shapes they were seeing. There was some good lateral thinking going on!
