looking at foods in books deciding what is healthy and non healthy --cll,kuw
choosing a recipe from a book then 'writing' a shopping list or cutting out pictures to make the shopping list.--cll,cd,pd
walking to the supermarket to buy the foods---pd,kuw,psrn(counting the number of items etc money)
making the recipe whilst discussing how the mixture looks and feels and smells and if we like it now and will we like it when finished---psed,cd,kuw,psrn-weighing etc
healthy and non healthy food plates--kuw, cll, cd
fruit kebabs--cll,cd,psed--do they like the feel etc
These activites will be adapted to suit each age, ie the one yrold will look at picture books, then make marks on the paper for her shopping list whilst the 10yrold will read the books and write her shopping list whilst maybe discussing the countrys where the food comes from.
fruit kebabs--the younger ones will probably mush and squish the fruit therefore discovering the texture and tastes and smells that way whislt the older ones will thread them on kebab sticks.
in the supermaket the older ones will get their own baskets and pay with money they work out themselves whist the younger ones will help to pick the ingreediants of the shelf and enjoy the differernt sights and sounds.
hope this is helpful
