“Perfect for exploring creative ways to cook - and include veges in yummy stuff! The beetroot was by far the winner - sweetcorn and chickpeas not so much. We included this as part of a module on Nutrition and how to create more fibreful and less sugar treats. The New World Card and scales were just the icing ont he cake ;)”

“The Unit was interactive, challenging and great to use on line. I am looking forward to also using it in the class now that we have returned, as many children didn't have scales at home and couldn't do it successfully.”

“I had to improvise an online fair test, some kids were not able to use the exact measures and needed supplies, this made it a fair test. Surprisingly enough to the kids, beetroot in baking is pretty good :). Chick peas were not a favourite, I asked kids to taste the food before they combined it, always good to expand taste sensories.”
