Have you tried the resource library? You might be able to find things in the growing topic or the topic on Ourselves.

What about food shops, with a choosing healthy options. Can lead to lots of discussions on what is and what isn't considered healthy.

How about physical activities such as the gym, swimming, running, going for a walk, dancing classes, football lessons and the instructors roles.

Not sure if any of these are worth exploring.

Oh, could you do a visit to local pharmacy? Get Health Visitor/Achool Nusrse In? Dental outreach if they have it in your area? Healhty cooking session for parents too?

 

And, just because this is my pet subject, a breastfeeding mother?

A baby to visit and be bathed (by the Mum/Dad)

Testing a range of saops to find out which cleans a stain best

A 'walk to the setting' day and a trail of footprints made by the children who have walked

Growing salad and other vegetables

Preparing salads and fruit salads

Make a salad dressing from yoghurt, cucumber and mint

Visit a farm or allotments

 

Good luck

My little boys have been on a trip to the local opticians (role play then became opticians).

 

Also, as a childminder I have access to a box of dental health resources - big set of teeth, big toothbrush, crocodile theme, books etc). Lots of fun and games. Expect there must be resources like that available to schools too.
