Montessori Joy: Babana Bread....Yummy!!!

The children and I had so much fun the other day making banana bread. It was a good practical life lesson for them. We learned that everything takes time and there are several steps in the process. First we study the recipe, gather the ingredients and last we measured them. We learned about different tools and cooking utensils too. The children measured all the ingredients and everyone participated mixing them and following the recipe. We poured our batter into the baking pans and took them to the cafeteria oven. We baked them and counted the time 40 min exactly, then we pick them up, let them cool for a little while and then we enjoyed them. I was surprised, it was actually delicious!! The children and I came up to an agreement, if they do well the whole week then we get to bake something on Fridays!! Yeah, I'm exited...I love cooking and baking! Now the Kids want to do this more often and they want aprons! I don't know were can I get 22 of them! PAPA, I'm in trouble deep!
