GO Food Fruit Salad Activity



On The GO-Food Track Activity 29

You will need: request, in advance, that each child bring in a fruit.

  • Prepare a "tropical fruit salad" - Send a note home asking each child to bring to school one part of the fruit salad. Have the children assist, whenever possible, preparing the fruits to make the salad in class. Add a little pineapple or orange juice to the salad and some wheat germ on top for crunch.

  • Give each child a cup of fruit salad. Ask each child to close his or her eyes and take a bite of the fruit salad. Have the child tell the class what fruits he or she tasted in that bite. Give each child a chance to do the blindfolded taste test and emphasize that in a fruit salad, every bite is a surprise!

Sing the Healthy Train song and use "fruit salad" for the Go! verse.
