Every year the children that attend the Early Childhood Development programme at CRCH – work on various themes throughout the year. They were a few weeks ago busy with discussions about Plants and specifically discussing vegetables and fruit – the children very seldom see raw vegetables and most times the fruit is already halved when they get it – so their reaction was very interesting when they completed their art pieces and each had to choose their favourite fruit to paint – we surprised them with strawberries and yoghurt – Strawberries and cream/ice-cream or yoghurt is not considered as a daily fruit intake for children – so they enjoyed eating the strawberries – the following week they asked when we gonna buy more strawberries – therefor I think our next experience will be taking them to strawberry fields to see how the strawberries grow and pick some for Sunday dessert with ice cream – Just waiting for the lovely sunny days then we on our way.
