Nursery went on a local trip to Tesco’s and bought lots of different exotic fruits to try. The children were able to feel the texture of the different fruits and also taste some. The parents who accompanied the classes were a great help. The children were also helped place the fruit on to the convey belt and pack the shopping. The next day the children had a range of fruits on our snack table to eat, which the children loved!
