Mirror Play


Are you looking to add a unique element to your classroom? Want to get your students exploring? This is an open-ended activity for the students to explore, build and create using a variety of materials. This kit includes a mirror surrounded by coloured foam, coloured ice cubes, mini cups, stir sticks and coloured flowers. 
$35.00


I set out this mirror play activity for my junior and senior kindergartens during free play. I left it as an open-ended activity where they could join the table to play and explore. To allow more students to play I put out four mirrors so that each student had their own space to create.


It was interesting to see what the students choose to do with the materials. Some students choose to build structures, make "drinks", make a picture, patterns, etc. Endless amount of fun exploring the materials and reflections with the mirror and manipulatives.




Extensions to add to your kit:
-coloured bowls
-coloured pom poms
-translucent shapes
-magna-tiles
-3D coloured blocks
-coloured jewels
-large coloured cups
