"I Planted a Seed": Childhood, nature and creativity

"I Planted a Seed" explored how children’s imaginations are inspired by nature in their storytelling, exploration and creative world. The exhibition started with the classroom and how nature supports creative learning in children. It then moved on to examine children’s own creative output and how nature is reflected in music, dance, play and textiles. On display were items from the IOE Archives and the Folklore Society collection, as well as material from outside of Special Collections including the IOE Rare Books collection and the IOE Curriculum Resources collection.
