Dear Daniel and Martha,
Eve was very intent exploring the beans and measuring tools yesterday. She used the scoops, spoons, cups and bowls of different sizes. During her investigation it was necessary for her to negotiate for materials and take turns using all the items. Not an easy task when you are 2 ½ (almost 3!). She commented on the sounds the beans made when they hit the bottoms of the different bowls and poured and scooped with abandon.
I took a few pictures of her and I wanted to point out the last one. It is a little blurry but it reveals Eve’s creative use of the materials. She scooped beans into the beaker, put the beaker into the bowl and then balanced the measuring scoop on the top. This was her own idea that was inspired during the play. She smiled and was quite satisfied with her creation. This event lasted less than one minute and she continued on with her discovery.
Enjoy the photos!
Jennifer
