04/25/2001 One idea could be taking the class on a field trip once a
month to the Kids' Cafe site and let them give the children "cooking"
lessons, nutritional lessons, and even safe food handling advice. If
you have really young kids at the site, the students could teach them
to make things like cold sandwiches; older children could be taught
how to follow a recipe and cook something.

- Getting some crafts donated and
have a craft night with the kids.
- Having a chef from a local ACF
teach the kids to cook simple meals and basic kitchen skills
- Having a puppet show after dinner
- Having a magician come and do
magic tricks
- Teaching the children "good
manners at the dinner table"
- Having a nutritionist come and
speak on the importance of good nutrition
