"BAGGY BUGS"
(a fun way to eat whole grains and fruits)
(a fun way to eat whole grains and fruits)
1.
Place a graham cracker in a plastic baggy, seal it shut and crush the crackers into a fine sand using a large spoon. Suggestion: Use whole grain oat or spelt flakes, or granola instead of graham crackers. After the "bug hunt," sprinkle the whole grains on yogurt.
2.
Add a few raisins to the bag and have the kids dig for bugs in the sand. Experiment with other tasty critters--dried cranberry "ladybugs," carob chip "ants" and more...be creative!
3.
Definitely use a magnifying glass!

I love this activity- can't wait to try it with our "Kidz Klub" after school group. I think I'll have the children graph each different "bug" they find to make it into a math activity as well. Thanks for sharing!
