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.

Making Paper Pots

This video from
Victoriana Nursery shows how some KS1 children make their own seed pots out of paper, using a pot making tool. The video also contains a discussion of carrots and how they grow, so if you are just looking for the paper pots section, the activity starts at 4 mins 10 secs.





If you don't have a paper pot maker, or enough of them for your group of children, here's a video from Bevoworks of how you can make one using a glass or plastic tumbler.
