Potion Making

by Mrs Allison

After reading ‘Room on the Broom’ the children decided they would like to make their own Halloween potions. We used lots of natural ingredients like pumpkin seeds and pulp, herbs, spices and petals.

We had a few horrible ingredients too like Goblin snot and Giant’s toenails. The children used lots of different utensils to measure, stir, pour and mix our ingredients.

There was lots of great descriptive language being used when talking about our potions and the children came up with some brilliant names:

“Pumpkin in space”

“Unicorn in a bush”

“Dragon fire”

“Stinky Slime”

 

Afterwards some of the children used their mark making skills to make potion recipe books.
