Studio Red: daily do & draw 4/3

Dear Studio Red,

We have noticed that so many of you have been cooking at home.  Food is important. We need it to stay healthy. It nourishes us in so many ways.  Food is beautiful to look at. It can create pleasure and comfort within us. Cooking and creating, with and for others, brings us great joy.

Today food will help us think together about taste and smell. Did you know that these two senses combine together in the back of your throat?!  That is why, if you plug your nose while you are eating something, it is much harder for you to taste it.  Or, how if you smell a strong odor like a skunk, it can almost seem that you can taste that odor too!   

Love, Lauri and Emily

DO

How will you create food for others?

Think of the materials you have around your house, inside and out.  How might you use Legos to build a cake?  Or blocks?  Could paper and tape or a box help you concoct a delectable treat?

We often see children create bakeries in our playground space.  Amazing cupcakes, cakes, soups and pies made of sand, mud, sticks and wood chips are distributed to everyone as we play.  Food is an amazing connector.  Together we imagine how different foods taste and smell.
