Preschool: Food & Baking

This was a week when I wasn't so sure about the theme but then I ended up loving it. We did lots of fun things in the kitchen and I love to cook. It was another great week of preschool.

Here is what McCall did for our food and baking themed week of preschool:

• She wrote the word food along with the letter F in uppercase and lowercase.
• She drew some of her favorite foods.
• We read a Disney book all about food.
• We played with the pretend food and counted the different fruits and veggies.
• We talked about different kitchen utensils and then did a matching game with them.
• She created her very own cupcake out of paper.
• Then she made some fizzy cupcakes with baking soda, sprinkles, and vinegar.
• She did some bread painting.
• She played with some cloud dough (flour and oil) and added her own sprinkles and used a wooden spoon, measuring cups and spoons, and cookie cutters.
• She went on a scavenger hunt for kitchen utensils.
• She painted with a whisk (and her fingers!).
• We made some bread in a bag and enjoyed it for dinner.
• We read "If you give a mouse a cookie".
• We did some chocolate chip counting. She counted how many chocolate chips were drawn on a cookie and then matched it to the right number.
• She made her own cookie out of paper.
• Then of course we ended the week with making chocolate chip cookies- one of her favorite things to make.
