Hand carved and hand painted by Noongar artists in Western Australia. Did you know Bardi Grubs (Witchetty Grubs) are the larva of a moth?. They can be found in the root system of the Witchetty Bush. High in protein they taste a lot like scrambled eggs. A guiding principle of the National Quality Framework (NQF) is that Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures are valued. Incorporating bush tucker into your home corner resources or role play areas create opportunities to embed culture into curriculum. Use these hand carved grubs to go on a ‘Bardi’ hunt by hiding them in the base of plants to collect. Use as a teaching tool extension to butterfly life cycles by exploring the life cycle of a Bardi Grub. The four grubs each measure 6 x 2 x 2cmH and the Coolamon is 11 x 11 x 3cmH.

The National Quality Standard (NQS) makes it essential for Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) services and educators to understand and help children learn about, the history, culture and contemporary lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Australian Aboriginals have eaten native animal and plant foods for an estimated 60,000 years. These Australian made products celebrate this cultural knowledge and traditions by allowing Educators to quickly incorporate traditional bush foods into their curriculum.
