Taste of the Day Activity - Sour Day

Today, we begin our Taste of the Day activity. We started off with sour day. Many children brought their food today to participate in the activity.

These were the food that the children brought:

Jun Yi, Wei Xiang, Ming Yen, Er Xuen & Dexter brought lemons

Germaine brought a grapefruit

Huey Teng brought a grapefruit too.

Yun Han brought some dry hibiscus tea leaves.

Alice brought dry sour plum.

I cut only one lemon, two grapefruits, sliced the dry sour plum and steep some dry hibiscus tea leaves. The children enjoyed eating those sour food. Even though they kept saying they didn't like it at first sight, yet after some encouragement, they did try and some even asked for more.

Here were some of the pictures of children distributing their food to their fellow classmates:

Yun Han put the dry hibiscus leaves into the hot water that I have prepared.

The oranges belong to Rui Xin who brought it yesterday. Unfortunately, that she was absent today.

"Ooh, sour orange!"

Yi Ming helped to pass the orange around. 

"It's really sour!!"

Alice passed around her dry sour plum.

"The sour plum is so sour!"

"It's too sour! I can't take it!"

"Can I not eat this?"

Er Xuen passed around the lemons to her friends.

Wei Xiang passed around the lemons to his friends.

"Oh no, it's so sour!"

grapefruits

Huey Teng passed the grapefruits around.

Germaine passed the grapefruit around. Some children looked at the colour and hesitate if to take or not.

"Oh, I don't want"

"Hmm, it taste nice. Better that I thought"

The children tasted the dry hibiscus tea.

Yun Han passed the drinks to her friends.
