Incredible block play! You can really see them testing the mathematical relationships here. That hand-measure is such a brilliant display of Froebelian 'Unity', understanding the parts and the whole through discovery. #BlocksRock

Fantastic presentation from one of our Froebel in Childhood Practice students. Thank you for sharing you work. #Froebel
