This week we discussed foods that are good to eat. Miss Carrie showed pictures of fruits like apples, bananas, watermelon and grapes. We looked at pictures of vegetables like broccoli, peas, and carrots. We looked at prepped foods like peanut butter, hot dogs, spaghetti, and hamburgers, and fries. We looked at things to drink like milk, chocolate milk, and juice. We looked at treats like gummy bears, popcorn, and ice cream.
Everyone gave thumbs up or thumbs down and said if they liked the food or did not like the food. Then we looked around to see who liked the same things or did not like the same things. We talked about how it is okay that our friends did not like the same foods we did. Miss Carrie does NOT like peas or peanut butter. Miss Carrie likes tomatoes. Miss Jeana does not like tomatoes. Miss Julie likes spaghetti.
Talk about the foods you are eating at home and who likes them. Label foods at the grocery store. Consider making a grocery list out of pictures to take to the store. Find out what is the favorite food of every member of your family.
