Healthy Smoothies!
As part of our health and wellbeing topic "healthy eating", Primary 4 have been learning how to prepare and enjoy healthy food and drinks. This week we made smoothies and tasted lots of different fruit. We talked about how these are healthy alternatives to food such as milkshakes, fizzy drinks and chocolate bars.

First, Miss Dougan asked us what ingredients we would like to put in our smoothies.
Then we washed our hands and put on our aprons ready to prepare the food!

Then Miss Dougan made the smoothie and we all had a bit to try. We also tasted lots of different fruit, some of which we had never tried before! We did lots of thinking about what how much we liked the smoothies and the fruit. We gave them scores out of 5 and discussed our likes and dislikes.
