IndusTRY at home *suitable for home teaching*
These activities and investigations are designed so that children can work at home with their families. The ones aimed at children aged seven and above will need some help from an adult to get started. The ones aimed at younger children will need more adult support and are designed for families to enjoy together.

Further information, plus videos connected to the activities, may be found here.
