Children’s bodies are undergoing constant change. By getting to know their own bodies better, these changes can be less mysterious. And a child who is in tune with their own body can use all of their senses as tools as they explore and try to understand the world around them. This activity helps children learn more about their sense of sight.

Cooking activities, even simple ones like this, are filled with great learning opportunities. Along with measurement and math skills, kids can develop problem solving and literacy skills as well. Also, by showing kids that they can make tasty drinks that are much more healthful than store-bought soda, you will provide an opportunity to talk about making healthy choices in their diets.

Giving children the opportunity to get in touch with their senses can help make them better observers – a child who is tuned in not only to what they are seeing, but to what they are hearing, smelling, touching and tasting as well, is armed with a complete toolbox as they work to understand the world around them. Try this activity to help kids become more familiar with their sense of smell.
