Kinder Incursions Frequently Asked Questions

How can we prepare our room for the Incursion?

It is best to put all tables and chairs in a circle/rectangle so every child can see clearly everything. Please clean the tables from glue, sticky tape or glitter.

How do you organise two or three groups simultaneously?

The Incursion is divided into three parts: making dough, shaping, eating. If there are two or three groups, we first make the dough with group one. During the raising time, the second group makes their dough. Then the third. Then it’s back to group one for shaping and so on, till we have all the breads shaped, risen and baked.

The incursion is 3 hours long. Is it broken up into segments?

Yes. There are two main segments where children are involved in bread making activities, each followed by a break. The final third is eating freshly baked breads.

We have children with allergies including coeliac and gluten sensitivity. Can they take part?

All children can take part. We make gluten free breads as well. We don’t use any nuts and will cater for other specific food allergies. However, in a case of severe nut allergy, we cannot guarantee that traces aren’t preset in some of the ingredients unless the manufacturers clearly state so.
