Cooking Together

Involving your children in the cooking can be a really good way to encourage them to think about the food they eat, where it comes from and how to make some healthy choices. The BBC Good Food Website has some great recipes. Why not try making a Sloppy Joe this week? Click here for the recipe.

Snowy Day Exercise

Mrs Evans (FoundsKS1) on: Health and Exercise

Are you ready for a snow day? Here are a few ideas to keep active in the winter.

Blow bubbles! Chase them and watch them freeze in the air if it’s below 0 outside

Build a city of snow sand castles using snow, shovels and buckets

Follow the leader: snow version. Tell everyone to see if they can try to step exactly in the footsteps, to make it look like only one person has walked through the snow.

Have a wintertime scavenger hunt.

Try skipping in the snow.

Try doing a cartwheel  in the snow.

Go on a winter morning family hike.

After all that exercise you will deserve a Hot Chocolate.

This is why it's important to encourage exercise and keeping fit from a young age but how much exercise does your child need? Follow this link to find out exactly how much is recommended.
