Recipe for Lemon Syrup

This is a great activity for Discovery Time and perfect for this time of the year when there are so many lemons around.
























The recipe makes enough syrup for the whole class to have a drink.

It provides a perfect opportunity for encouraging participation / collaboration and oral language (essential skills / key competencies).


The activity can be extended by:
  • Setting up a drink stall - with cash register and play money. Children design a sign and decide on a price.
  • Setting up a cafe - children organise the table, waiting staff (with pad & pen), money, kitchen staff for washing up etc.
