My name is Cristina Cimpoesu, mother of 2 boys and Montessori teacher in-training at the Montessori Institute in London. 

During my work at nurseries and also in my home, I have noticed children often choosing to work with creative, loose parts, “junk” items over toys. They felt exhilarated when they turn bits and pieces into something unique. 

During the month of August, at St’ John’s Memorial in Woking, I create a place for open-ended learning through play with loose parts. 4 sessions, every Tuesday.
