What’s on your plate at the Learning Vine this year? What would be on your plate if you sat down to eat in Europe? Africa? Asia? These questions will be answered as we prepare ALL NEW foods that kids in other countries enjoy and as we glimpse their cultures. Using fun activities, we’ll learn things about their languages, clothes, art, what they do for fun, and much more. We’ll also assemble a booklet of recipes and facts to remind us of the places we’ve studied. So, if you want to cook and sample some tasty foods, AND if you want to learn about how other people live, then come and put something new on your plate as we explore the world in this multicultural gourmet adventure!
