Hi everyone,

I've chosen to highlight one of the  afternoon activity that took place at Sr. OSC this week. Our crafty  leaders Brianna & Emily decided to try doing 'circle looming' with the children. Circle looming is a type of knitting that uses a round template that you wrap yarn around in a particular pattern to create hats, scarfs, bracelets and other accessories.



Several years ago, circle looming and traditional knitting was a big craze at OSC, and we are excited to see if this afternoon activity will take off in the same way it did some time ago.







This is such a neat activity because it focuses on fine motor development skills given the intricate nature of the hand movement. Additionally, the kids have the space to get creative and make something of their own choosing!





Shared below, is an example of one of the children's progression, as they work through the process of a making a hat.
