Loom Making

One of the topics we will be exploring this year is fibers: how they insulate, their properties, the physics of how they stretch and what gives them strength along with weaving them and investigating the functionality of our own clothing and how it  is made. As part of this we will have different kinds of looms available for them to have ongoing projects on.

We need both materials and helping hands!

Materials all can be found on Enrichment Program's Amazon Wish List:

1. 100 + (more is always nice) sturdy corrugated cardboard rounds cut out with a 12" diameter
2. Kite string
3. 100 + 4x7x.75" pieces of hardwood
4. 2000 + nails
5. 1000 popsicle sticks
6. Blunt metal embroidery needles

Helping hands:
