We're lucky to have a horse chestnut tree growing in our outside area. The children have recently been enjoying collecting the fallen conkers, breaking them open and using them in the mud kitchen. We realised that the children didn't know 'why' a horse chestnut tree grows a conker so we made a simple 'Life cycle of a conker' to help us to explain.

In 'The Little Red Hen Makes a Pizza' the Little Red Hen checks her cupboard to see if she has the ingredients for a pizza. She doesn't but she does find other things such as beans, sugars and spices and different jams! We used this page to inspire lots of fun learning opportunities!
