# Tasty treats at forest school

Today at Forest School we tried something new and very exciting… edible paint on bread!

Once everyone had finished decorating, we carefully toasted the bread over the fire. Watching the pictures slowly toast was fascinating, and the smell of warm bread around the fire made it even better.

Finally, the best part… eating our artwork! The children loved tasting their creations and were very proud of what they had made.
