We LOVE Dr Yum day here! Today our food adventure was BROCCOLI! The kids watched a video showing how broccoli grows, we read a book, painted leaves on trees using broccoli crowns, chopped veggies, and mixed up a delicious recipe—-whew! While not all the kids loved the tangy broccoli salad they were at least eating the plain broccoli and carrots and that’s a WIN! 🥦 🥕 🥦 🥕

First Dr. Yum class is in the books! 🍓🔪
The kids had so much fun chopping their own fruit to make strawberry salsa. Some of them even tried kiwi and mint for the very first time! Today they learned safe chopping skills, and explored new flavors. Each kid also went home with their own strawberry plant. Such a fun and exciting first class! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳
