Resources

These pages are a mixture of our own resources, and those we have found from other people and organisations. Some resources here have been provided by practitioners and parents who have tried and tested them, but you will have to assess for yourself the benefits for your own children and whether it will meet the guidelines you are working with.

Some resources are created by food industries. While they are not allowed to promote intentionally inaccurate information, they will naturally wish to promote their product as the most important part of the diet. However some of the resources they provide are very good when used in context. Wherever I am aware that a resource is industry sponsored I will say so, and you can exercise your common sense in evaluating it.

Elderflower Cordial

Although elderflower cordial requires pouring some boiling water, and therefore children can't complete the whole process, there is so much they can help with. Helping to find and pick the elderflower heads, washing them and taking all the creepy crawlies out of them, straining them off and then enjoying the results makes it very worthwhile, especially the magic of the fact that they were picked for free!

Here is a nice version of an
Elderflower Cordial recipe from the Gardening With Children blog folks.
