It was a fabulous day! As the children arrived, they figured that the groundhog did not see his shadow this weekend. The sunshine was streaming in our windows and the morning felt so warm and balmy. Spring is on the way!
We are nearing the end of our Creating Colour Science unit, and to celebrate, we decided to enjoy some rainbows ... in our bellies!
Our Snazzy Snack this month was Rainbow Cupcakes! Can your child retell the steps we followed to make them?
We began by taking white cake batter, dividing it into six bowls, and dyeing the mix with food colouring.
Then, children scooped a bit of each colour of batter into a muffin cup.
We popped our colourful creations into the oven, and in no time, we were eating delicious rainbows! Way to go, chefs!
After our bellies were full and our fingers wiped clean, we spent some time listing ingredients and sequencing the steps, allowing opportunities for several little phonics mini-lessons sprinkled throughout. Another great recipe into our cookbooks!

Great One really is sunshine and rainbows!
Special thanks to Peonies and Poppyseeds for the wonderful Rainbow Cupcake recipe we used today!
