Abstract
ABSTRACT This article considers the different ways in which the lamination machine influences early childhood practice. By using Jane Bennett’s notion of ‘thing-power’, we focus on how preschool teachers and preschool teacher-students use a lamination machine and why they use it. We claim that both the process of lamination and the machine have a great impact on pedagogical practices by giving power to the teachers’ choices and priorities. The article contributes to the discussion on how technology and materiality become a vital part of the everyday lives of both teachers and children in kindergartens and prompts a need to highlight the use of technology in early childhood education.
