The children in nursery always have a nutritional snack each day at nursery.
Throughout the year they learn how to prepare and make a range of dishes, which gives them the prerequisite knowledge to thrive as humans, great fine-motor practise and some early design technology skills.
The staff make considered choices about what they offer children in order to widen their knowledge of types of food and their appetites.
Recently, we have been cooking plants as part of our Understanding of the World topic. The staff and children also made Nigerian inspired Jollof rice as they learnt all about countries in West Africa.
