Topic exploration

Look at carrots with an adult and talk about what they look like and how they feel. What kind of words would you use to describe them? Maybe they are long, short, bumpy, smooth, crooked, straight, pointy or thin? Are they all the same size? Are they all the same colour? Can you find a carrot that is a different colour in the supermarket? Don’t forget to email your photos to us!
