2010 will see the introduction of the fabulous Change4Life Family, Food and Fun Zone!
The Change4Life, Family, Food and Fun Zone will give you and your children the chance to really get involved with learning more about the wonderful world of food and making healthy eating a way of life!
There will be an amazing range of hands-on activities for you to try, from planting your own mini herb garden to concocting your very own smoothie.
Here's just a sample of what you and your children will be able to participate in .........
Touch it, smell it, grow it! – Herbs and spices add enormous interest to everyday cooking. Touch, smell and taste a whole host of different herbs that can bring new life to your dinner table then plant up a selection of herbs in our recyclable containers then take them home to grow and use in your own kitchen.
Bread making – Watch our experts and get stuck in. Produce a silky and elastic dough by simply pushing, folding, slapping and rolling the dough around, over and over, for 4 or 5 minutes!
Pasta Making – Does your child know that the hard pasta you buy in a bag is made simply and easily with just flour and eggs? And there’s no secret to kneading your dough. You just have to bash it, squash it, pulling it, stretch it and squash it again!
Smoothie making – choose your fruit from the huge range available and treat yourself to your very own variety of smoothie made right before your eyes! (Small charge may apply)
Make a meal of it! – Bored with serving sliced carrots on the side of the plate trying to achieve your 5 a Day? See everyday foods such as potatoes, peas and carrots incorporated into alternative dishes with recipe cards for you to take away and try at home.
