When you see a recipe do you follow it completely or do you add a little of your own flavour? Are you the same with your play?
- I’m a big fan of experimenting and letting the children lead with their imagination.
- I love how they take everyday objects and use and reuse in many different ways.
- I love seeing what other people do and am influenced by it.

How did you come up with your play style?
