Jello

JELLO!!! Easiest, Best snack to make with kids! 
Ok so there is some sugar in it but it's fun to introduce science: steam, evaporation, dissolving, etc. 


Red food is a fav in our house, so raspberry was an easy choice. 


I showed them how to stir slowly and gently so they didn't splash and stain. I demonstrated how the red dye can stain and cause problems with clothes, towels, rugs, etc. One reason the don't have shirts on right now :) 


We discussed the idea of steam, what is it, where it comes from, etc. 

                       

They each got turns mixing, dissolving, and telling the difference between hot and cold water. 




Fun in the kitchen with kids!!!!!

I love giving my little ones more vocabulary everyday and letting them practice. Make sure you give your little ones the chance to practice the words they hear you use. Making time, having conversations builds such strong foundations for language and their use of it!
