Cooking with Kids #1

One unique feature of KCLC's preschool curriculum is its integration of cooking. It serves as an experiential learning activity for the children and it enhances their sensory and fine motor skills.

In line with that, KCLC Tutorial Services' online home will also share with you fun recipes that we found online. What's the use of reposting information already contained in another website? Spreading the love! Spreading the knowledge!

Fun Fruit Kabobs from Kids Health:


Prep time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
  • 1 apple
  • 1 banana
  • 1/3 c. red seedless grapes
  • 1/3 c. green seedless grapes
  • 2/3 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup nonfat yogurt
  • 1/4 c. dried coconut, shredded
Utensils:
  • knife (You'll need to help the children with this)
  • 2 wooden skewer sticks
  • large plate
Directions:
  1. Prepare the fruit by washing the grapes, washing the apples and cutting them into small squares, peeling the bananas and cutting them into chunks, and cutting the pineapple into chunks, if it's fresh. Put the fruit onto a large plate.
  2. Spread coconut onto another large plate.
  3. Slide pieces of fruit onto the skewer and design your own kabob by putting as much or as little of whatever fruit you want! Do this until the stick is almost covered from end to end.
  4. Hold your kabob at the ends and roll it in the yogurt, so the fruit gets covered. Then roll it in the coconut.
  5. Repeat these steps with another skewer.

Serves: 4

Happy Eating! :)

Child-Friendly Website #1

Who says learning can only be done in school?

Here at KCLC's virtual home, we will occasionally feature educational websites that parents can visit with their children after school or on weekends.

Our first featured website is Play Kids Games.

What can you do at PlayKidsGames?
  • Math Games
  • Alphabet Games
  • Vocabulary Games
  • Memory Games
  • Geography and Puzzles
Just be sure to guide your children while playing. Instruct them in a clear, concise, patient and understanding manner. It is recommended that online play must be limited to 30-45 minutes only.

Enjoy! :)
