We read the book Up, Down and Around by Katherine Ayres about how some vegetables grow up, while others grow down, and others grow round and round this week. After reading Up, Down and Around, I thought it would be fun to make vegetable flashcards for JDaniel to act out. He needed to stoop down low for the carrots and potatoes. Then JDaniel stood really tall with his hands over his head for the celery, cucumbers and the cauliflower. Finally, he spun around and around for the tomatoes.

The book sounds great. I love your idea for the activity!
That’s a cute idea! My kid is learning the veggies at the moment… makes me think of the Jamie Oliver show where the kids didn’t even know what a tomato was– they needed flash cards!
Stopping by from Mom Loop!
This book looks so cute. It’s definitly a subject none of the books we have now cover. I think i will have to go check this one out. I love buying books for my kids, I never feel guilty about buying a book.
