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.

Eatwell Paper Plate Activity

Most educational models for teaching children about a balanced diet now use the Eatwell Plate. It is easier for child to visualise food on a plate and how much of a plate should have veggies, or meats or potatoes or rice on it than some other nutritional models.

This paper plate activity reinforces this learning by getting children to build a healthy but yummy plate of food for themselves.
