Nursery & Early Years Cookery Enrichment Programmes

The Power of Baking
Curiosity → Independence → Pride → Self-belief → Sharing → Belonging

Little hands are capable of more than we sometimes imagine.

At BAKE N PLAY by Dolce Senso, we use baking and food exploration to give young children opportunities to touch, discover, create and do things for themselves.

Learning Through Doing

Young children learn through experience. They touch. They smell. They ask questions. They experiment. They copy. They try.

  • Confidence and independence
  • Communication and vocabulary
  • Fine motor skills and coordination
  • Curiosity and exploration
  • Creativity and imagination
  • Social skills and cooperation
  • Willingness to try new experiences
  • Pride in their achievements

Supporting Early Years Learning

Our programmes are designed to complement your Early Years provision and can create meaningful opportunities for development across several areas of the EYFS.

Personal, Social & Emotional Development

Children make choices, take turns, work alongside others and gradually become more confident doing things independently.

Communication & Language

Food gives children something exciting and tangible to talk about. New ingredients, smells, tastes, colours and textures encourage children to ask questions.

Physical Development

Mixing, rolling, pouring, scooping, shaping and using age-appropriate equipment help children practise fine motor skills, coordination and control.

Understanding the World

Food naturally inspires questions, giving children opportunities to explore nature, culture, ingredients and how things change.

To the child, it feels like play. Behind every activity is an opportunity to develop confidence, communication, independence and curiosity.

Designed Around Your Setting

Every nursery and Early Years setting is different. We can tailor programmes around your specific needs and learning objectives.
