Snacks and Senses!

Sorry, I got a few meetings behind.
  At our earlier meeting this month, we earned our Snack and Senses Patch! Both of these patches can work easily with each other so that's what we did. 
I set up snack stations to create different kinds of snacks.  We had our sweet station with Nilla Wafers and frosting and then M&M's for decorating. 

We had our sweet and salty station where the girls made their own tortilla pizzas. 


We also had snack for energy which included celery sticks with peanut butter and raisins. 



The girls were paired up in stations and got to work making some yummy snacks. 









This part served as our taste test also for the Senses patch. 
















Next, we did a smell test.  (We forgot about the hearing test)


I walked around with containers of different things in them. The girls couldn't see what was in them but they had to guess what they were based on the smell.  The smells included vanilla lotion, peppermint car freshner, coffee, nail polish remover, cinnamon, and maple syrup. 


We also had to make a drink for our Snack patch.  So we made strawberry smoothies! 


As a final touch on our Senses patch, we wrote our names in Braille using googly eyes for the dots.  This give them a taste of touch without using sight. 



It was yummy and fun meeting!
