Going bananas
We have recognised that over the past month, the children's fascination in exploring the five senses. Here at BestStart Glasgow, we have become very clever and innovative with how we support and foster this for our tamariki.
Firstly we made some scones with all of the children to extend their interest, we were smelling all of the ingredients and then after baking, we were tasting those yummy scones for afternoon tea.
The next week, we made some healthy banana milkshakes, but we decided to make it more fun, we would incorporate a racing game of which team can smoosh the banana's the fastest. Then after the game, we discovered that we only needed two ingredients, milk and fresh banana's. Once our ingredients were added to the blender we found that the blender is very loud, so we needed to cover our ears. Next we all got to taste test our yummy and healthy milkshakes. Would you like to give it a go? Here is the recipe for our super shakes ... One banana mashed, next add 1 and a half cups of milk and blend till frothy and drink. (makes approximately 2- 3 cups of milkshake.)
