What's in a packed lunch?
In this lesson, we will explore what makes a healthy lunch, what kinds of ingredients could be used and why they may have been chosen. We will also look at a lunchbox and consider where the ingredients have come from. Please note this lesson will require some additional equipment, beyond a pen, pencil or paper, to fully participate. Please see the equipment slide near the start of the lesson video and make sure your child is adequately supervised if equipment is required.
