Mapsticks

Have you ever made a mapstick? A mapstick is a map, on a stick, of a journey you have made. All you need is a stick (any shape and size), and oddments of wool of appropriate colours.

 

Go for a walk around your house or your garden. As you go, note the different colours you see. You can also collect small objects such as leaves etc.

 

When you are ready, you simply wind the wool around the stick to show your journey, fastening in the objects where they should go. For example, in my garden I might start with orange and cream for the roses. Then I might add green for the bamboo and blue for the water, with a piece of white for the silver birch tree behind. I might weave in a piece of birch catkin.

 

I wonder what it would look like if you went round your house? Would it be different to the garden?
