*Mini Class video coming at the end
I’m introducing a Halloween book today.
It’s “A Very Brave Witch”.
As you can guess from the title, it’s a story about a good witch!😊
Specifically, one that with a growth mindset which we want to instill in our children’s minds.
This book also shows the nature of witch’s life through illustrations.
I really love the illustrations. You can “feel” the Halloween.🎃🌚🌙
It’s a short story, so it’s great to read it again and again with your little one during Halloween time.
And! On the Halloween day!
Have a witch’s lunch!
🧙♀️🧙🏿
Witch’s Lunch
Materials
- Sandwich bread
- Butter (in room temperature)
- Matcha powder
- Sugar
- Drink (of your choice)
- Gummy worms
- Popcorns
- Marshmallows
- Food colouring (green)
How to
Green Toast
Leave the butter out in the room temperature.
We need soft butter.
When the butter is soft, mix in some matcha powder and sugar.
Toast sandwich bread.
Spread the green butter on the bread.
Green Drink
You can buy green(ish) drink or if you can’t, just use any drink here.
Because …… the important part of the drink is worms! 😆
I found a neon green coloured drink.
Add a few gummy worms into the drink.
Gummy Worms For Witch’s Drink
Green Popcorn
You can use pre-popped popcorn here.
Melt marshmallows with butter in a pot.
When they are melted, add some sugar, vanilla extract and a green food colouring.
I’m not a strict recipe follower but I referred to this recipe from “iheartnaptime” (https://www.iheartnaptime.net/marshmallow-caramel-popcorn/)
When the marshmallow mixture reaches the flowy consistency, remove the pot from the heat and pour the mixture over popcorn.
Coat all the popcorn with the marshmallow mixture.
(My marshmallow mixture was too much compared to the amount of popcorn, as you can see😂.)
Find your best ratio. 😉
Spread the green popcorn on a baking sheet with a parchment paper.
Ta-da!
Witch’s lunch is ready!
Most of tasks are easy enough for children to do. Just help with melting the marshmallow and let your child try preparing their witch’s lunch.
→ INDEPENDENCE, HIGH SELF-ESTEEM 😉
