Learning Focus
Make a Healthy Snack
In today’s story Oliver helps his Grandpa in his garden and learns about lots of different fruits. We would like you to make a healthy snack today. You could make a fruit salad like Oliver does in the story or perhaps some fruity lollies or a fruit smoothie.
You could use fruits that you already have in your kitchen or you might like to help your grown up make a list and go shopping for what you need. I wonder which fruits you will use?
Can you chop your fruit using a child safe knife?
We use our eyes all of the time, I wonder if you can use your other senses whilst making your snack?
- What can you hear?
- What can you smell?
- What does it feel like?
- What does it taste like?
Promoting Independence
Using a Dustpan and Brush
At school we teach the children to clean up when they make a mess, we often have to use a dustpan and brush to clean up spilt sand or messy play. It takes a bit of coordination but they enjoy practicing.

Resource Packs
If you have picked up your child's resource pack, they may already be very excited to explore what's inside. Whilst there may be times that we encourage the use of certain resources, we would love for your child to have access to these, whenever they wish. Below are some ideas about how you can enhance this learning.
