Aspen's trip to Lidl!

Yesterday Aspen class was ready for a day of shopping and baking! After talking about road safety and how we stay safe when we leave school, we headed to Lidl to buy our ingredients and decorations. The children walked very sensibly and when we arrived at lidl each group had two items on their shopping list that they had to locate and purchase. Once each group had paid for their items it was time to head back to do some baking!

When we got back to school it was time for the children to bake their biscuits! In groups the children followed a recipe to make their biscuits. There was lots of turn taking and teamwork to count out the correct number of spoons of sugar, butter and flour. They then rolled out their dough and cut out their biscuits ready to go onto a tray and bake. 

The children then went off to enjoy their lunch while the biscuits baked and cooled. After this, it was time for the fun part, decorating! The children loved icing their biscuits and covering them in chocolates and sweets! There was lots of delicious looking biscuits and lots of smiles at the end of the day when they could take their masterpieces home! We hope they enjoyed eating them as much as they enjoyed baking them!
