Meg's Veg

Did your family receive the Imagination Library book 'Meg's Veg' in February? It was sent to children born in 2014 (group four) and is a much loved bestseller from Helen Nicoll's classic 'Meg and Mog' series. 

 

On our website we have posted a handy activity sheet to accompany the book. This is full of cost effective tips that will help you to bring the story to life at home!

 

Meg's Veg will raise children's awareness of growing vegetables. The activity sheet contains links to great resources like CBeebies family vegetable quiz and advice on cooking with toddlers.
