Where Does My Food Come From?
These activities, from Practical Action, encourage children to think about where their food is produced. The interactive presentation shows children where some common foods are sourced.
There is also an activity using food labels to illustrate the source of foods. It could be used as a homework activity to illustrate where the food they have at home comes from. A simple spreadsheet allows children to choose the menu and calculate the food miles for a meal. Information cards can be used to promote a discussion about different food choices that children can make.
