Cathy @ NurtureStore says
Hi kiwi. You should be able to click on the link and it will automatically download for you. I’ve just tried it and it was slower than usual – around two minutes – but then OK. Could you have another try and please let me know if it doesn’t work?

Love the website. Would you mind informing me how junk modelling helps with creative teaching and creative learning? Thank u
Cathy James says
The best way to realise this is to see it in action: sit and observe your children as they junk model and notice all the designing, planning, thinking, problem solving, creativity that goes on.
