This week was full of flavors, smells, textures, and many discoveries!

Throughout the days, our little Pirates transformed into true cooks and food explorers!

We started with vegetables! We picked vegetables from our garden, discovered their names, colors, shapes, and textures, and, with utensils adapted to small hands, prepared the ingredients for a delicious soup!

Then it was the fruits' turn! We observed, smelled, touched, and tasted different fruits. With great dedication, we cut them into small pieces to prepare a tasty fruit salad!

 

We also made orange juice! We squeezed the oranges and toasted with a healthy and delicious "cheers!"

 

And because food isn't just about fruits and vegetables, we ended the week as true bakers! We played with flour, explored its texture, and got our hands dirty kneading our bread!

 

These were days of sensory experiences, autonomy, sharing, and lots of learning, where the children had the opportunity to get to know food through exploration and active participation.

 

At Piratinhas, we believe that learning to eat healthily begins with curiosity, discovery, and the pleasure of experimenting!
