The taste testing activity proved to be a hit! Mac & Cheese, Carrots, Bananas, Sweet Potatoes, BBQ, and Strawberry jam were all on the list for this game. Who knew the kids would be so timid? Except for the BBQ sauce! They all wanted more!
After making their own pizzas we brought out the rolling pin and flour and let the kids roll out their own breadsticks! I was impressed at how well they did on keeping the flour ON the counter and not on the floors!
Jessica and Madeline watch intently as I explain the 'proper' way to use the back of the spoon to spread the pizza sauce on their dough! Kids are soooo fun at this age! They actually listen when you speak!
For one of the activities we learned the names of uncommon kitchen utensils and I taught the uses for each of them. For a "Hands On" activity we brought out three dozen raw eggs and let the kids practice how to separate the yolk from the whites using just the egg shells! It was great!!!! Scrambled eggs anyone?
Kenny and Jessica in front of the Spaghetti Birthday cake after we made it for the party! A ziploc bag full of slightly yello tinted cream cheese frosting for the noodles, raspberry puree for the spaghetti sauce, and crushed oreo cream cheese balls for the meatballs made for a very fun cake! Happy Birthday Jessica!
