PreK and kinder cooking; letters N and V

I try to combine cooking lessons as much as I can so I don't have to plan two 'lessons' for different letters for the kids' classes. It's rare that I'm able to make it work, but I did last week and it made my life much easier for a day :)

So, for the preschoolers, we made a Nature scene:

We made sand (crushed graham crackers) and added some flowers with Sour Candy Straws (stems), Vanilla Wafers (outer layer of the flower), and a strawberry as a tulip.

And this worked great because Mrs. Copper asked if we could make something with Vanilla Wafers, so the kindergartners made Vanilla Wafer flowers :)

And Lauren, silly Lauren, got all creative with her flowers. She's definitely an 'artist' in more ways than one ;)
