Teaching children about healthy eating and dental health is vital for their physical and mental wellbeing. This set of KS1 printable activities is designed to be used to support a healthy eating or myself topic.
My one-day food diary
This activity sheet is designed for children to keep a record of everything they eat in a day. Once complete, they cut out the template and fold it to create a mouth that closes, then opens to reveal their food diary inside. Use to encourage discussions about healthy choices.
Healthy food choices worksheet
Children identify which foods we should eat most, some, and least of. This includes a version for vegetarians and for vegans.
Food sort activity
Print out the 5 group labels (fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy, and protein), and the 27 food cards (8 to a page). Cut them out. Children can match the food cards to the group they belong to. Colour and black and white options included.
**Keeping my mouth healthy **
This activity sheet uses the same mouth design as above. Use as an opportunity to discuss good oral health. Children colour and cut the template, then fold it to create a mouth.
Please note, this 14-page PDF is not editable. US and UK versions are included.
I created this wordsearch for my Yr9 top set. Pupils have to work out the meaning of the definitions and find the corresponding word. Great to revise foods and drinks or to introduce healthy eating... Or to set cover when you're snowed in!!!

PowerPoint and full script attached.
My class came up with their own song too (we recorded it and I’ve attached the music and lyrics).
