EARTH TOASTS π
π§π½βπ³ Food painting is fun and easy!
π§π½βπ³ Mix blue and green food coloring in a little bit of regular milk or condensed milk and use paint brushes to make your earth toasts! π ποΈ
π§π½βπ³ Make the shape with a glass π₯
π§π½βπ³ When toasting the bread, take the opportunity to talk about global warming and how earth will look browner and dryerβ¦ and it depends on how we treat our planet!
π§π½βπ³ What is the impact of global warming? Rise in temperature, water shortages, increased fires, pest invasions, among othersβ¦ The causes? Burning fossil fuels, cutting forests and farming livestock are some of them.
π§π½βπ³ How to explain this concept to kids? Human activities like driving cars, creating electricity and cutting down forests, release gases into the air which warm the planet.
π§π½βπ³ Children are the future! Teach them now how to take care of the Earth and how to keep it clean and healthy for generations to come! π π±
π§π½βπ³ Teach them to throw garbage only on designated places or bins.
π§π½βπ³ Teach them about water and electricity conservation: turning lights off, shutting the water off while brushing their teeth, unplugging things when not in use...
π§π½βπ³ Create recycled art with plastic bottles or tin cans or any material you donβt use anymore.
π§π½βπ³ Plant a tree or grow a garden πͺ΄
π§π½βπ³ Create a compost bin.
π§π½βπ³ The goal is to mitigate climate change, reduce pollution, protect biodiversity, and support communities through food and energy production! π

Mise en Place! This is a french culinary term which refers to the set up required before cookingβ¦
Best trick to cook with your kids!
π¨βπ³ Have all ingredients and utensils prepared before hand and it will make it easier!
π¨βπ³ For smaller kids (ages between 2-5), have all the ingredients measured, and chopped if necessary in small bowls. They would only have to mix, pour, knead doughs, etc.
π¨βπ³ For older kids, you can let them measure their ingredients and have more independence in the kitchen.
