Plants

This week we started to learn about plants and flowers for our science unit. We made these cute flower masks. The kids really liked them and would look at each other and start laughing. They really enjoyed learning about all the different parts of the plants. We even talked about the different parts of plants that we eat all the time. Roots: Carrots, radishes and beets; Stem: Celery; Leaves: Cabbage and lettuce; Seeds: Peas and Corn; Fruit: Tomatoes; Flower: Cauliflower

For cooking this week I tried out a yummy recipe from superhealthykids. The kids really liked it. I think it will be a recipe I make for our family. It was so yummy. All you need is: 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt, 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1/4 tsp. Cinnamon, and 1/4 cup of chocolate chips. Mix them all together and then dip apples, strawberries, bananas, pretzels and whatever else you like. 

We decided to eat picnic style today! It was so much easier, I think we may cook on the carpet a lot more.

My little girl woke up earlier than normal today and joined us. Yum! Yum!
