Hello Parents and Carers, and to the children of Little Crickets Nursery.

Though we are currently at home, we can continue our learning about the world. This week we were planning on teaching children the importance of keeping healthy, and how to make informed and healthy food choices. Please speak with your child about the importance of trying and eating different fruits and vegetables, and you could play a game where the child decides whether a particular food is a healthy or unhealthy food choice.

You could also look at all of the different fruits and vegetables that you have in your house and identify and sort them by colour.

Try asking your child to identify all the different fruits and vegetables that you can find (either by using vegetables from your kitchen, or using pictures in books or on the internet. Please also watch the fun short video below of the story Oliver’s Fruit Salad.
