Keeping healthy in Year R!

Last week we met a little monkey named, 'Ricco'. We dressed-up as doctors and found-out why Ricco wasn't feeling very well. He said that he was tired all the time, had headaches, didn't have any energy and felt grumpy in the afternoons. After asking him about what he eats and what time he usually goes to bed we decided that he needs to make some changes! We 'brain-stormed' some ways that he could be healthier. We also found-out that Ricco has an iced cake in his lunch every day! We looked at how much sugar that is in a week and in a month! We decided we could help by finding a healthy muffin recipe for him and his parents to try instead. Every day we baked a different flavour of healthy muffins and taste-tested them. At the end of the week we voted. Oak class liked 'peach' the best and Beech liked 'blueberry' the best. We wrote down our recipes and sent them to the Ricco and his family to try! Enjoy!
