A Vegetable Garden on a Plate
Grated carrot becomes a path, broccoli becomes trees and cucumber rounds become a pond. Your child builds a whole garden and then eats it row by row.
What you need
- Carrot
- Broccoli or a bunch of dill
- Cucumber
- Cherry tomatoes
- Curd cheese or sour cream
- A large flat plate
How to play
- Grate the carrot and slice the cucumber and tomatoes yourself, then put each one in its own bowl.
- Let your child spread curd cheese over the whole plate as the ground.
- Ask them to lay a winding path of grated carrot across the garden.
- Press broccoli florets or dill sprigs in along the path as trees and bushes.
- Build a pond from cucumber rounds and a flower bed from halved tomatoes.
- Let your child tell you who lives in this garden before you eat it together.
