Exploring Food Together
We are passionate about nurturing the relationship children have with food.
We believe that the exposure and exploration of food, in both mealtime and non-mealtime settings, supports this relationship in a positive way.
And so, we create activities and resources to support children’s exploration of food, at home and school.
Nurturing food exploration in children, through stories, cooking science, music and nature
Food and nature exploration programs
Designed for all children, families and educators, to nurture a positive relationship with food and nature.
Stories
Children love to listen and read stories. We use story as a way to start a conversation with children about food. To initiate ideas, concepts and thoughts.
