Guest Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Can anyone inspire me??? During our topic of the senses we will be having a taste testing week. The children aged two and half to rising five will taste different things daily. Aparantly our tongue picks up bitter, sweet, sour and salty so if anyone can give me some ideas along these lines. They also need to fall into our healthy eating policy. Obviously no nuts. No celery and need to be veggie. HELP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliamch Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 We did platters of fruit. Started with unpeeled and unchopped so children could see the fruit in their natural form. We then had photo canistres with holes punched in them and cottonwool balls doused in various flavourings for the children to smell ( lemon, pineapple, strawberry etc.). Then we encouraged the children to try as many different fruits as we could ( make sure you have a camera ready for any lemon tasters!)and finally they made fruit kebabs from the fruit they enjoyed most. We had a child who we knew reacted to strawberries so when it was her turn we had a platter that we knew had not been touched by strawberries ready for her. Have fun Karrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliamch Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 If you click on My Controls (which is first on the left of the blue navigation bar at the top of the page), then scroll down and click on Edit Avatar settings you can choose a preloaded image from one of the galleries or select of of your own that's saved on your computer. Hope that helps. Karrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
