Lesson # 9 was our fruit tart lesson for the children . The crust was nut free ( we used sunflower seeds to replace the nuts). The sunflower seed worked very well for our tart crust. The children were able to slice the fruits and make their own personal tart. Needless to say they had a fantastic time shaping the crust and then smashing bananas on top of the crust....sound like fun ....well it was. The children then placed an assortment of blueberries, strawberries,oranges,and grapes on the top of the crust. The creative side of the children was wonderful and all the tarts were truly a piece of edible art. Once they made their fruit tarts we asked them to close their eyes and eat take a bite and focus on the different flavors. In unison we heard "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM" this taste so good. This lesson was so much fun for the children as well as the Food Educators and this lesson just blew the teachers away! Now it's your turn to experience the fruit tart our children made. Enjoy!
