We received our delivery of fruit and veg and with Mr I don't eat anything showing a great interest in it's arrival I was thrilled. we got out all the differen't fruit and veg and talked about what each one was, it's colour and if it was a fruit or veg. We decided it might be nice to make a big pot of vegetable soup while eating a fruit salad plate! (every mummy's wish - but will he eat it - that is the question)
When we got the veggies ready i realised that there really aren't any jobs for an almost 3 year old to do when making soup, so he set about making his own!
Master N got busy measuring and weighing his ingredients. Using some plastic pegs as his veggies and picking matching colours for the said veggies. He added some pasta as I did and some shells as a special touch.
He was still going while i was finished and all washed up....pouring mixing and re-weighing. What fun....what a mess!
Oh and did he eat the real one?
No! But was very keen for me to give some to his baby sister!

My daughter loves going to the fruit and veg department and checking out all the vegies! And the day we find something we haven't seen before!! We can talk about it for weeks.
Fortunately, she eats her vegies, and when she wants to help it's her job to put the chopped ones in their pot or container to be cooked. Not a big job, or something I need help with, but it lets her feel like she is contributing :)
I love his pretend soup :)
