I make banana bread at Hana. - NadiaAt home, I put chocolate in my banana bread. - VanWe hope that everyone enjoyed their long weekend! Today, the children had the opportunity to help with a special baking project in the classroom. Earlier this school year while gathered together for snack, Van mentioned to his friends that "when the bananas are brown, we make banana bread." This led to an exciting conversation about what the children enjoy baking at home with their families. We knew that eventually, we would revisit Van's idea and make some banana bread ourselves. Knowing that this week some of our SJP community members would be helping to both prepare and serve dinner for unhoused guests of St. John's Church, we felt that this would be the perfect opportunity to have the children contribute in some way. Today at morning meeting we shared with the children that St. John's Church tries to figure out different ways to help people in our neighborhood. This month, the church is helping to make food for visitors who might be hungry in the evenings and need a place to have a meal. The children were excited to make a new recipe and to help contribute to the meal planning! Of course, they understood that they too would benefit from the experience. We can make it for the grown-ups at the church! - Thomas And then we can have some for us! - Lily Banana Bread
