🥕 Fun with FOOD 🥧

Hi friends, it's Percy! It's November, and that means Thanksgiving is coming soon! I love gathering with family and friends and eating some of my favorite foods. Crunchy orange carrots are one of my favorites, and I really like apples, too -- either just as they are, or baked into a pie. What are some of your favorite foods? My friends at the Library helped me pick some fun books and games to learn about food. We hope you like them!

Percy's Tip for Grown-Ups: Do you have a child who doesn't like trying different foods? Don't give up! Kids may need to try foods several times before liking them. Get this and other tips for picky eaters from the CDC.

Percy's Picks for November:

Read!
Fry Bread

A Menu of Books!

This month, we're recommending three books, all about food and family traditions: Fry Bread, The Rice in the Pot Goes Round and Round, and The Blue Table. Reserve them now!

Read them

Play!

Dancing Eggs

Dancing Eggs 

This is an award-winning game that comes in a real egg-box! Although it's a children's game, it is great fun for adults as well (the box says for ages 5-99, after all, and we agree that just about anyone will enjoy the silly, goofy fun!). Reserve it and play together after dinner.

Play it

Experiment!

Dancing Grapes

Dancing Grapes

This is a fun and easy STEM activity from the Lil Tigers blog that only requires two ingredients: seltzer water and grapes! Do grapes float in water? Do they float in seltzer? Try it and find out!

Ed Dia de los Muertos

Percy's recommending... El Día de los Muertos Celebration

Why? Because it's fun to learn about other cultures! Come to Ostrander Branch Library on Tuesday, November 7 to celebrate and learn about the Latin American Day of the Dead. It's great for the whole family!

Food with Family

Percy's watching...

Food with Family

Why? Because some of the best memories are made when you help cook and eat a meal with your family! Percy is always thankful for the food on his plate and the friends and family around his table.
