We asked the children what else we can do with our kernels. The children suggested cooking or popping them. When the teachers asked how we should cook or pop the kernels, we got some interesting answers.
Some friends thought we should try putting them in the oven; others said that the microwave would be a good place to cook them- just like my mommy does at home. One friend said, we should try the freezer and someone else said “silly that’s how we get Popsicles”.
Everyone agreed that we should try and see if our kernels will pop. We went to the kitchen and placed a microwaveable bag into the microwave. All the Unicorns were so quiet waiting for the first exciting “pop” to happen! After few silent moments, the sound of the popping kernels and the warm smell of popcorn filled the room. We were amazed to hear and see how those hard little yellow kernels of corn, popped into the soft white puffs we enjoyed.
Our experiment with popcorn was a great success and we loved the added bonus of having some tasty food to eat afterwards.
