The Mom I Want to Be

 

The nose knows which delicious item left its mark.

• oranges, grapefruits, strawberries

• construction paper

 

Show your child the whole fruits and ask him to describe how they look and feel. Then cut them in half. Ask your child to describe what the fruits look and feel like on the inside. Let him press each piece of fruit onto a separate sheet of paper. Write the name of each fruit on the paper below the print.  Ask him to close his eyes and then to smell each fruit print. Can he guess which fruit was used? Talk about how each fruit print smells.
