Food Groups Preschool Activities
Thanksgiving and Christmas are the best for festive meals with family and friends. This also means busy time in the kitchen which can be overwhelming with the little ones running around. We are planning on including kids in some fun cooking. I thought it's a perfect time to review the food groups to help them make healthy choices at the holiday table. Our list of "cook books" we read for the holidays can be found here: In the Kitchen.These great resources will get kids excited about cooking and food - looking forward to spend some sweet time in the kitchen with My Firefly.
