We have been following the children in Ward Hobbs which has led us into our very own grocery store and restaurant!
The children expressed an interest in the many stages of food prep, particularly store to table, and the studio morphed to accommodate. Now we have a small store, kitchen and the YUM cafe.
This week the children were eager to try out some cooking ideas of their own. So we tried our hand at recipe writing and already put a few of their ideas to the test.
Here a child is making her own recipe for a banana boat, using bananas, yogurt and fresh blueberries left over from snack.
In keeping with this theme, BJ joined us to make homemade berry jam with gluten free corn muffins. This prompted a flurry of imaginative cooking in the studio area.
And where are we getting all this food you might ask? From our very own store of course!
The classrooms have brought a cash register into the work areas for a deep dive into money, quantity and value. This will no doubt enhance next weeks shopping savvy.
Looking Ahead...
We will be making some of the children's recipes. Stay tuned for photos and reviews!
