Playsilks / Svilene marame za igru





























Art, creativity, play and toys occupy an important place in Waldorf education.
Waldorf toys are very simple. The simpler the toy - the greater its creative potential: a simple toy provides more opportunities for play in several different ways and for its use in several different ways - and this is one of the most important aspects of creativity.
Waldorf pedagogy in particular insists that the toys are made of natural materials - so they are made of silk, wool, cotton, wood ...

Umetnost, kreativnost, igra i igračke zauzimaju veoma važno mesto u Valdorf pedagogiji.
Valdorf igračke su vrlo jednostavne. Što je igračka jednostavnija, to je njen kreativni potencijal veći: jednostavna igračka pruža više mogućnosti za igranje na više različitih načina i za njenu upotrebu na više različitih načina - a to je jedan od najvažnijih aspekata kreativnosti.
U Valdorf pedagogiji se posebno insistira na tome da igračke budu od prirodnih materijala - pa se za njihovu izradu koriste svila, vuna, pamuk, drvo...

























Playsilks are a classic Waldorf "toy". They are beautiful, they nourish the senses and most importantly - encourage hours of open-ended creative play since  they can become anything the child wishes with only a little imagination: a cape, a blanket for the baby, a curtain for the puppet show, a flying carpet, fairy skirt, butterfly wings, a lake or river for paper boats and other small toys ... The possibilities are endless!
Each piece of fabric can be fun to play, but silk is special because of its wonderful shimmery lustre, lightness and transparency. Even babies like to touch silk scarves - and especially love to hide behind them and play peekaboo.

Svilene marame su klasična Valdorf "igračka". Lepe su, neguju čula i najvažnije od svega - podstiču sate kreativne igre "otvorenog tipa" (open-ended creative play) jer mogu postati bilo šta uz samo malo dečje mašte: vitezov plašt, ćebe za bebu, zavesa za pozorište lutaka, leteći ćilim, vilina suknja, leptirova krila, jezero ili reka za papirne čamce i druge male igračke... mogućnosti su nebrojene! Svako parče tkanine može biti zabavno za igru, ali svila je posebna zbog svoje svetlucavosti, lakoće i providnosti. Čak i male bebe vole dodir svilene marame - a posebno vole da se sakrivaju iza njih i igraju pikabu.



























When Baby Z was still a baby she loved to take the wipes out of the box, one at a time (until the end) and put them in her mouth. Not very convenient, right? So I made her this "toy":

Kad je Beba Z bila još uvek beba obožavala je da vadi vlažne maramice iz kutije, jednu po jednu (dok ne dođe do kraja) i da ih stavlja u usta (i sisa). Nije baš zgodno, zar ne? Zato sam joj napravila ovu "igračku":















































I used this shoe-box with a hole on top of it. I tied a few playsilks together and put them in the box for baby Z to pull them out of the hole - one by one. One by one, until the end.

Upotrebila sam ovu kutiju od cipela sa rupom. Nekoliko svilenih marama sam zavezala jednu za drugu i stavila ih u kutiju za bebu Z da ih izvlači iz kutije jednu po jednu. Jednu po jednu - sve do kraja!

I love the tissue box for toddlers with play silks. It's such a creative idea and would make a great gift for new moms or one year olds.
