Food Explorers
About this Course:
Exploring food encourages children to learn through sensory experiences, hands-on activities, and working together to create delicious results. Food Explorers provides children with the knowledge to make healthy choices for themselves. By combining nutrition education with cooking and hands-on food exploration, you'll have a Food Explorer in no time!
