Fun With Family Friday- G

Today is Fun With Family and today we are working on the letter "G".

First we will work on the G recipe - Good for You Grilled Shish-ka-bob!

To make this-

you will need fresh fruits and vegetables,

shish-ka-bob skewers,

and a Teriyaki marinade .

We used Lawry's Teriyaki 30 minute marinade with pineapple juice



We used - apples, grapes, cantaloupe, honeydew melon,

and pineapple for our fruit selection.

Arrange the fruits on a plate so that everyone can reach them.
Give everyone a skewer and allow the kids to start placing fruit on them.




Make sure to keep an eye on little ones with the skewer- they may need some assistance.

After everyone is done- place the finished skewers on a plate and drizzle the Teriyaki sauce over the fruit. Roll fruit around to cover all sides with sauce.




Now go to grilling!
If the weather is not appropriate for grilling -
roast in the oven on broil for a short period.
Grill/broil and turn until the fruits all look done.
Pull the fruit off the skewers for younger kids and dig in-

Tasty treat that they will enjoy!

The g craft is growing a garden!

It is important to start teaching kids at a young age to help give back to Mother Earth.

Right now we are working on germinating the seeds.

Take an empty egg carton and fill with a good potting soil.

Place a few seeds into each hole .

Cover with dirt again .

Lightly water and stick egg garden in a nice sunny spot.

Take the seed package and lightly tape to the inside of the cover.

That way- we will remember what you planted and we can refer to the instructions on back when we go to plant the sprouts.

We will come back to this in a few weeks once we start to have sprouts!
