TRANSCRIPT
Together, set up a pretend shop with food items. Take turns at being the shopkeeper and customer. Model and encourage your child to use the language and phrases we say in shops. Extend by encouraging your child to mark make (write or draw) to create a shopping list. Some stories to share and talk about: Oliver’s Vegetables https://youtu.be/2yvllKqyVUc Handa’s Surprise https://youtu.be/UuMS5UQ1kyE Vegetable Glue https://youtu.be/Fru0XOaebsI
Use vegetables to print repeating patterns. Initially, your child may just like to explore printing with the vegetables and talking about the shapes each vegetable creates. With encouragement and modelling, your child can start to create a repeating pattern with 2 different colours or vegetables. Extend this to 3 or more if your child is confidently making repeated patterns.

*If you are teaching your child to write their name, please use a capital letter to start with and lower case letters for the remainder of the name. We do not expect you to. Only try if they are showing interest. Otherwise, any kind of drawing, lines or their own pretend writing is perfect.
Try some of these healthy recipes for cooking with young children: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/kids-‐cooking Encourage your child to use their senses to explore new and familiar foods. Use a blindfold and encourage your children to feel and guess what fruit or vegetable you have given them. Encourage them to discuss how it feels, the size and weight, if it has a stalk, leaves or skin. Use a blindfold again to smell the fruit or vegetable. Talk about how it smells and if they like it or not. Using fruits and vegetables at home, discuss which have grown underground or on trees.
In addition to the activities for nursery children on the EYFS page, the suggestions here are for 2-‐4 year olds. Older children will enjoy taking part as well. There is no expectation that you complete all of these activities. If you would like to share any of your child’s learning or news please use Tapestry or our new EYFS email address [email protected] We look forward to seeing anything you share with us.

Please take a look at Tapestry for teaching videos that will be uploaded by the EYFS team this week.
Butterfly printing– Can you create a colourful butterfly?
Talk about how the paint has mixed and changed. What do you notice about you print? Does it look the same on both sides? Why could this be?
Whilst thinking about healthy eating, try singing and moving to some action songs to help to help your child name their body parts.
