Bring real-world product design, branding and creativity into your classroom with this engaging Creative Confectionery challenge, where pupils step into the role of young designers to help artist and designer Seraphina Huesplash launch her very first chocolate bar.
Using the accompanying project sheet, pupils complete a series of creative tasks that take them through an exciting product-development journey. They explore real chocolate packaging, create their own design criteria, and sketch a bold, eye-catching chocolate bar wrapper complete with labels and branding ideas.
As they work through the project sheet, pupils gather feedback from others, refine and improve their designs, and develop their persuasive writing skills by creating an exciting advert paragraph using modal verbs and alliteration to convince customers to buy their product.
To finish the challenge, children compose a catchy jingle for their chocolate bar, encouraging musical creativity and performance skills through rhyme, rhythm and simple composition.
The challenge includes:
Researching and evaluating real chocolate packaging
Creating clear product design criteria
Designing and labelling original chocolate packaging
Completing tasks using the project sheet
Gathering peer feedback and refining ideas
Writing a persuasive sales paragraph
Creating a fun advertising jingle
The included project sheet can be used as a compact mini-project for homework, enrichment or end-of-unit activities, or the overview can be used to expand the challenge into a larger cross-curricular project spanning DT, art, writing, enterprise and music.
Perfect for KS2 homework projects, enrichment activities, DT lessons, writing lessons, enterprise projects or cross-curricular creative weeks.
A fun, flexible and highly engaging challenge that encourages imagination, creativity and real-world design thinking from start to finish.
