Hello friends of 
I am a lover of crafts and I would like to present a series of educational strategies based on them, any child is interested in working with their hands, coloring, pasting, cutting, drawing, in short, having fun and what better way to do it than making crafts.
Anyone can easily make a loom with a piece of cardboard and start weaving in a matter of minutes. It is a very entertaining, creative and relaxing craft with which children enjoy a lot.
Materials:
- A piece of cardboard.
- Thick wool or similar.
- Scissors.
- Ruler.
- Pencil.
Process:
Cut a piece of rectangular cardboard half size of paper. Although the loom can be of the shape and size you decide, I advise you to start with something simple.
On one of the sides marks lines separated 1 cm. Do the same with your opposite side, taking care that the marks are symmetrical. Six stripes will be enough for your first loom.
Make cuts on the marks with a depth of 1 cm or so.
Place wool on the cuts forming parallel lines. Knot the ends on the back of the cardboard and you can start knitting.
Cut a piece of wool and tie it with a knot to the first of the vertical lines (wool you have rolled in the previous step).
Then pass it horizontally alternating below and above the lines of wool so that you get a framework.
To make it tight and uniform, you will have to collect the rows that you are making.
When the wool thread is finished or you want to change it, simply tie another one and follow the process.

- To finish, tie the yarn to the last vertical line, turn the cardboard over and cut the wool threads in the middle. Then join the threads two to two with a knot and that's it!
Weaving is very fun and it is also great to develop fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination in the little ones. So let's cheer up knitting with the little ones!
