Recently Natalie and her children were looking through different recipe books together in the kitchen role play area and they were pointing to all the different biscuits, buns and other delicious treats.
This sparked some great conversation about their likes and dislikes and they enjoyed having a lovely chat together as a group. They then decided to make their own buns, cakes and biscuits using play dough and different play dough utensils.
They referred to a recipe book for inspiration and they let their imaginations flow making some very delicious treats!
This little one loved this and she gave everything a good go making sure she experimented with ALL the utensils… she would praise herself and cheer even before she had fully finished ‘baking’ too as she was just soooooo excited!!
She just needed a little help when it came to using the cutters as she didn’t understand to push down harder and she initially just made marks with them, but she was still very happy with this and Natalie was then able to scaffold and support and demonstrate to further her learning and ‘baking’!!
They all had so much fun being top bakers together!!
