Here’s a free downloadable PDF handout highlighting quotes from Simon Nicholson’s Theory Of Loose Parts. You’ll find a PDF of his original articles here. We’ve also set aside a corner of Playvolution HQ to highlight loose parts ideas.
This handout highlight’s key ideas about the theory as well as Nicholson’s one sentence definition of loose parts:
The theory of loose parts says, quite simply, the following: ‘In any environment, both the degree of inventiveness and creativity, and the possibility of discovery, are directly proportional to the number and kinds of variables in it.’
