Let’s Enjoy Science by the Spoonful
27. September, 2024,08:00 - 16:00
Children will be introduced, in an age-appropriate way, to groups of protein, fat, and carbohydrate foods, as well as micronutrients and their main dietary sources. They will learn about the general importance of these nutrients for health, especially for children’s well-being and performance (“What is good for strong muscles/strong bones/fighting a runny nose/good brain thinking?” and similar).
We will demonstrate the preparation of a balanced meal, which they will be able to taste. They will try identifying and recognizing basic tastes and smells. Within these activities, we will dispel myths about nutrition (for example: perceiving taste with a blocked nose).
