fruits from the story, engaging our senses by discussing how they smell and feel. From the soft skin of the mango to the bumpy texture of the pineapple, the children have been fantastic observers!

Next week, the real treat begins – tasting these delicious fruits! We can't wait to see which ones are their favourites.

This activity beautifully links to several areas of the EYFS curriculum:

English: We've been focusing on story sequencing and developing our vocabulary as we retell Handa's exciting adventure.
Geography: We've been learning about different fruits and where they might come from in the world, sparking curiosity about other cultures.
Stay tuned for photos of our fruity tasting next week!
