Week 4: Play with food!
This week was all about food, which made the kids very excited! The first thing
we did was go around the circle and say all of our favourite foods. There were, of course, lots of ice cream, pizza and spaghetti!
The first book we read was:
This book was about a boy who decided that he didn't want his mother's heathly balanced meals anymore so he took the cooking into his own hands. This, of course, lead to Finn cooking only with cookies, chocolate and ice cream, which made him very sick!
The first game we played was Food Alphabet we sat in a circle and each of us had to say a food that started with every letter of the alphabet. It was always hard for the last on sitting in the circle because all the easy ones had already been said!
The last book we read was:

For our craft today we did potato printing!
