Waterstones Children’s Laureate Lauren Child has teamed up with talented teacher and creator of arts and crafts, Josey Scullard, to come up with six inspiring ways to get children to think creatively.
Together, they gathered up books that explore delight in thought and discovery, and that are all at once philosophical, artistic and highly personal.
Here you will find six creative resources to use at home, in schools, in libraries, in museum education rooms and anywhere you like. And you can share your own creations online the hashtag #Staringintospace.
