Early Year 2 – Science: Smelling Herbs and Spices

In Science lesson, EY2 students were introduced to a variety of herbs, including ginger, lemongrass, lime, ,lime leaves and turmeric. Each herb was carefully placed in small safe containers, allowing them to explore independently and comfortably. One by one, the students were blindfolded and invited to smell each herb, encouraging them to focus on smelling and guessing each scent.

Through this activity, students are set to develop stronger sensory awareness especially in smelling, boost vocabulary recognition, and confidence in expressing their ideas. The activity also support curiosity and critical thinking, as students learned to make connections between everyday ingredients and their unique characteristics.
