The kids in our class get these little containers of strawberries with their school breakfasts, and being that they're preschoolers, they usually share a container and we put the others in the fridge for another time.
Well, we ended up with a bunch of these little containers and the teacher had an awesome idea...we needed to make strawberry milkshakes!
She went and got some vanilla ice cream then we put some in a cup for each kid, added a little strawberries, a little milk, and had them stir (sequencing and fine motor skills) then they had to suck it through a straw (oral skills), plus they were sitting at the table practicing their social skills. See, it was all in the name of education! (And of course we grown-ups had one too...role modeling, you see...yeah, that's the ticket!)

Bet the kids LOVED IT!
mmmmm....strawberry milkshakes are the best! I bet that was one of many great days for them...one they will talk about for years & years...'cause a strawberry shake is never forgotten...
Now I must go make one, I have frozen strawberries in the freezer & milk in the fridge...
