The Aboriginal Bush Food Kit offers a unique collection of educational resources designed to teach children about traditional Aboriginal bush foods and their significance in Indigenous cultures. This kit encourages hands-on learning, role-playing, and meaningful conversations about First Nations Peoples, their history, and their connection to the land. Through engaging activities, students will gain insight into the diverse range of bush foods that Aboriginal people have traditionally relied on for survival.

This product is highly beneficial for educational use as it supports cultural awareness, promotes environmental education, and encourages respect for Indigenous traditions. The interactive nature of the kit helps foster creativity and empathy, while also deepening students' understanding of Aboriginal food practices, sustainable living, and the importance of the natural world in Indigenous cultures.

Classroom ideas:

  • Organising a role-playing activity where students act out traditional bush food gathering and preparation, learning about the processes involved.
  • Introducing a “Bush Food Day” in the classroom where students can try making bush food-inspired recipes or explore the different plants and animals that make up the Aboriginal diet.
  • Using the kit’s resources to spark discussions on sustainability, food sovereignty, and the deep cultural connection between First Nations Peoples and the land.
  • Creating a classroom display of Aboriginal bush foods and their uses, encouraging students to learn through visuals and hands-on activities.
