Today at Cart Mill family centre the children discovered wild raspberries on their nature walk. They talked about what other fruits grow wild in Scotlandā I found strawberries when I was on holiday , they were really sweetā ā I like finding brambles on a walk they are big Ā purple and juicy ā Ā They collected the raspberries Ā and decided Ā to make them into yummy muffins.
The children looked up a muffin recipe in a baking book and decided what ingredients they would need. āWe need flour sugar milk and baking powder to make them riseā āletās wash our raspberries so they are clean āāWe will need scales to weigh out our ingredients ā ā The children were able to name and weigh out their ingredients waiting patiently on their turn.
ā I need 150 grams of flourā Itās not sticky enough you need more milkā ā I need to put in two tablespoons of sugar ā
The children used lots of descriptive language whilst making their muffins. Ā They are looking forward to tasting them at home , well done everyone.
