Indigo has become a little obsessed - as have we all - with Siphonophores. At the same time she wanted me to teach her how to write bamboo yesterday. She really enjoyed it and so we discussed whether she wanted to do a loose parts study of a word or letter and arrived at the decision to do the letter s.
We stand back, except to question whether the long straight sprig best captures the bottom curve of the s. Indigo solves the problem herself, finding a way to capture the curve with many small loose parts.
Indigo is now interested in an s on the side that we had cut out but set aside. She plays with it, animating it like a snake.
Discovering how the 3D s twists and turns, she becomes interested in making a bridge with the s.
