Activity ideas – primary (5-8 years)
To support your Healthy Eating Week, here are lots of exciting activities (with links to
resources) that you could undertake.
Theme: Food origins - where does food come from?
1. Where does food come from? Introduction
Explain to the children that all food comes from plants or animals.
Use the Where does food come from? PowerPoint 301 to introduce this concept to
the children. Can they name the foods? Do they know whether they are from plants
or animals?

2. Plant or animal? Card activity
Draw two columns on the board (or on a large sheet of paper) and head them,
Plants and Animals. Place the Food Cards into a small bag. Take a card from the
bag. Ask the children whether it comes from a plant or an animal. Start with some
simple examples such as fruit and fish. Briefly discuss the chosen foods, e.g.
 Who has eaten this before?
 What does it taste like?
Choose children to come and take a card, name the food and attach it to the right
column. Discuss their decisions. Continue until all the cards have been used. Ask
the children if they can add further foods to either of the columns.

4. Farm visit
Arrange a visit to an animal farm so children can find out more about the animals
there and how they are cared for. Alternatively, the children could use books or the
internet to learn about how other animals are farmed, e.g. lambs.
If you are interested in visiting a farm or knowing more about farming, use these sites
to help: http://www.visitmyfarm.org/ and www.face-online.org.uk/
If you cannot arrange a visit, why not use The farm visit story and resources?
http://www.foodafactoflife.org.uk/Sheet.aspx?siteId=14&sectionId=100&contentId=

You could also show some farming videos to the children. Here are some examples:
 Fruit and vegetable harvesting:

5. Fish is the dish
Look at the different types of fish that can be farmed or caught in the UK. Find free
downloadable lessons and resources to teach about types of fish, cooking fish
dishes and the role of fish in a healthy diet, here:
http://www.fishisthedish.co.uk/education/education-resources (Only linked to the
curriculum in England and Wales at present.)
You could also show the children a video about where fish comes from:
http://www.foodafactoflife.org.uk/VideoActivity.aspx?siteId=14&sectionId=63&cont
entId=163&titleId=615
6. What’s changed?
Show children the Can I eat it? PowerPoint to emphasise we cannot eat food
straight from the farm or garden, it has to be changed in some way. Provide
examples of small changes (e.g. washing) and large changes (e.g. heating).
Establish that these changes are made to make food safe to eat. Give children the
What’s changed? Cards. The children can cut out, match and stick the foods in their
books. They can then write, or cut out and stick the Changing words Cards, to show
how the foods have changed between each picture. You may wish to cut out and
laminated the cards so they can be reused.

7. Farm to fork Interactive activity
Show children the Farm to fork (5-8) Interactive activity. Explain to them that the
activity asks them work out the different steps, from farm to fork, for different types of
foods. There are 3 stages for each food. It is useful to demonstrate the activity to the
children before they try it independently.

8. Juices!
Show the Juices video and Apple and carrot juice recipe and question children
about the ingredients used. Can they tell you what part of the plant carrots, apples,
pears and cucumbers come from? Set up a cooking session so the children can
make the juices. Can children come up with their own juice ideas?

9. Grow your own potatoes
Why not grow your own potatoes at school? Work with the children to create a
growing area - it could even be a bucket or tub! Use the following link to order seed
potatoes, as well as learn more about growing!
http://gyop.potato.org.uk/
You could also show the class The bucket garden story as a PowerPoint or as a
video. Use some of the supporting resources based around The bucket garden story
such as How to grow a potato, Potato plant parts and What grows when?
http://www.foodafactoflife.org.uk/Sheet.aspx?siteId=14&sectionId=100&contentId=

entId=163&titleId=172
10. Organise some growing!
If you already have a food garden at school, take the children out to work on the
garden. Discuss with the children what plants need to survive, e.g. water and light. If
you do not already grow food at school, start preparing and planning what can be
done. You could organise some simple planting, such as growing herbs on the
classroom window ledge. More information on growing food in school can be
found on: http://www.growingschools.org.uk/

11. Food Bingo!
Show children the Eatwell plate poster and explain that we need to eat different
foods from these groups to be healthy. Ask the children to name each food group
and some of the foods they can see. Show children the Food cards one at a time,
keeping the food name covered. Ask them what each one is called and what food
group it belongs to? Organise the children into pairs and give each pair a Food
bingo board. Explain that you will take a Food card and call out the food on that
card. If the children have this food on their board, they can cover it with a counter.
The first pair to cover all their foods will be the winner. The boards can be swapped
and the activity repeated.

Arrange a class visit to a local supermarket. Give children the Food treasure hunt
worksheet to guide them to find foods from given pictures and record information
about them. If possible, arrange to talk to a shop manager and encourage the
children to ask questions, e.g. where does the food come from, how often does
food get delivered to the supermarket.
http://www.foodafactoflife.org.uk/attachments/18639410-7d9a-4906fc73d06d.pdf
4. Let’s get ready to cook
Show pupils the Let’s get ready to cook to poster. Ask the class to suggest reasons
why each of the steps is important (e.g. tie back long hair to stop hair falling into the
food). Ask the children to draw a picture of someone who looks ready to cook
based on the poster checklist.

8. Tasting
Organise a tasting session with your class. Use the Tasting checklist to help you
organise this work. Try a variety of fruit, vegetables or breads for your tasting session.
Use the Investigating ingredients SMARTBoard resource to help you tell children how
to taste the ingredients and use sensory vocabulary. The children can use the
Investigating ingredients worksheet to record their thoughts.
