Blood

We had a little planning meeting a week ago or so and one of the things that both George 1 and 2 wanted to look at was Blood. I did a bit of digging and found that you could make blood and then eat it! They thought this was wonderful. It incorporated some maths as well as there was a bit of weighing involved.

The ingeredients were:

Golden Syrup (plasma)
Silver balls (fat, amino acids, waste products)
Red sweets (Red blood cells)
Mini marshmallows (white blood cells) - there were just two in our mix but we talked about what infected blood would look like.

Once we'd made it they had a spoonful each but given the sugar intensity I drew the line at one spoonful!
