This is BLUE Week and the prek students are cooking everyday. It started on Monday by making blueberry Jello for tomorrow's snack...and today's snack was a tasty blueberry smoothie. By adding one carton (from our cafeteria) of fat free milk, several large spoons of low fat yogurt, and 1/3 cup of fresh blueberries to a blender, the students were treated to a very healthy blue snack. They will be making blueberry mini-muffins tomorrow for Wednesday's snack. Since it is also our week to focus on our sense of smell, the students played with their new homemade play dough. The red smelled like raspberries, the blue smelled like peppermint, and the purple smelled like vanilla. They will have another wonderful smelling snack on Thursday - popcorn. On Friday, also YELLOW Day, the children will make their own YELLOW, lemon flavored play dough. They will also be squeezing lemons to make fresh lemonade to go along with their banana snack. Next week we will focus on our sense of taste...more opportunities to cook:)
