would you like a copy of my planning????? had to do a recent one for uni!!!:D
simple stuff like
measures - pouring from jug to cup, noticing the numbers on the side.
you weigh stuff when you are cooking
freeze up some ice (you could make some coloured) and why does it freeze, what is happening to it....
sand is another good one - use it to pour etc
what happens to it when it gets wet
change of consistencies - gloop, rice, sand etc
have you got Penny Tassoni's Practical EYFS
throughly recommended!!!!

i must admit i struggle in this area but wi have been counting the play food into the basket and then into the play trolley we then have a big calculator that they just press any button and they have some chocolate money to pay with. they love playing it , my two are 2 and a half and 3 and a half.
