The blog theme this week is Construction Equipment. JDaniel loves playing with his construction vehicles and reading about them I thought it would be fun for him to eat like one.
He was given Frito’s Scoops to scoop up his taco salad lunch. He had ground turkey, shredded cheese, blueberries, peas with barley, and tomatoes to scoop up like a front loader. This wasn’t an easy task. After several attempts with the scoops, he went for using an orange peel grappler (his hand bent into a claw) to finish his lunch.
Christina says
I love it! That’s a very cute idea to use the scoops (and eventually the orange peel) as construction tools. π
Evenspor says
What a fun idea. I wonder if my boy would eat more if he were pretending to be a digger.
Christy says
Love it! What a great idea. π

I love your scoop idea! I’ll bet he had so much fun!
Jenny says
That’s great. I love how you incorporated the idea from the book. My kids would love to pretend to be construction workers while they’re eating.

Peas with barley sounds like a very good meal for my twins (11 months). I’m going to try that combo – thanks for the idea!
Did he make engine noises while he ate?
