Kinder Incursions Melbourne

kinder-incursion-melbourne

Kinder incursions Melbourne – Make Bread offers bread making kinder incursions where children have the opportunity to actively participate by kneading and shaping the dough. The best part, of course, is eating freshly baked bread!

Preschool children learn best through hands-on experiences. Baking bread with children is the perfect way to stimulate the developing mind and actively engage all senses.

Bread making is fun, but also a very practical, real life activity with great educational potential. It’s well known that cooking activities help develop many skills in young children:

  • mathematics (sequencing, measuring, estimating)
  • simple science
  • vocabulary
  • taking turns
  • listening to instructions
  • fine motor skills
  • language skills
  • food preparation and general hygiene
  • enjoyment of cooking something for themselves

 

melbourne-kinder-incursionOn Friday 11th June we had Vesna from “Make Bread“ join us to bake bread, pizzas and grissini.

The children loved the high participation level of this activity from mixing the ingredients, watching the yeast activate and the bread rise, rolling out the dough, cooking it and of course eating their results.

It proved to be a great activity.

Incursions FAQ

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.

We have only one oven. Can we have MakeBread incursion at our place?

Of course. We only need one oven and can adapt to any facility.

What is the most popular MakeBread incursion?

Hot Cross Buns, Herb & Garlic Monkey Bread and Bread Rolls are the most popular MakeBread incursions.

What types of bread can we make at the incursion?

The choice of baked product depends on the facilities, number of children, learning topic, dietary requirements etc. Upon your enquiry MakeBread will offer you several incursion options based on the above.
