The Keshet children have explored apples in many ways this fall. Today we engaged many of our senses in making delicious applesauce for snack. We continue to introduce implements and tools, and today we used our plastic knives, first talking about safety, feeling the serrated edge that we used to 'saw' the apples, and then practicing. Ben, Isabella and Ethan produced some finely chopped apples that cooked quickly in our crockpot. We smelled the apples and the cinnamon that we used for seasoning; Eva and Harrison tasted the cinnamon, and agreed that it was better on the apples than taken alone. Harrison led the way in cleaning up, scooping peels, cores and seeds into the basket, and we all washed the tables together. Snack is always special when we have worked together to make it!
