The students decorate their egg carton for the egg hunt. Each child finds a dozen eggs. We discuss that a dozen equals twelve. I've been doing egg hunts like this for years. It eliminates the drama of some finding more than others; everyone finds fair shares. When each child finds their dozen he or she can help their friends find eggs or sit down and see what is in their eggs. EGG CARTON LABEL - Bunny Card The students created bunny cards using an egg shape pattern. They decorated with colored paper scraps and wrote Hoppy Easter inside. Digital greeting created with Smilebox We dyed Easter eggs! Each child decorated 2 eggs with crayons before putting the egg in the dye. This little bunny is hard at work adding a design to her egg. Jelly Bean Math The students sorted, tallied, graphed, added, and subtracted using Skittles jelly beans. Each child had a container of jelly beans with their initials on the lid. JELLY BEAN MATH I make these cute little bunny cupcakes every year for our Easter Party. I like to give my little bunnies these crunchy carrots as a party gift. Who doesn't like cheese puffs?!

“Soup of the Evening, Beautiful Soup!” sings the Mock Turtle to Alice, while she adventures in Wonderland. When the chill of winter descends there is nothing so comforting and warming as a bowl of soup. Here is a brief round-up of some of Buffalo’s most beautiful soup offerings, sticking with those that are regularly on the menu. Grab a spoon! Wonton Soup at Ming Cafe, 3268 Main Street: Gingery broth, delicate plump wontons, and the untypical, but perfect addition of lots of vermicelli noodles, make this version of the common Chinese menu item uncommonly good. Its listed as an appetizer, but the large portion and huge quantity of noodles, make it a perfect light meal as well. Follow up with the moo shu chicken. You will thank me. Pho Tai Chin at Pho Dollar, 322 West Ferry Street: All the pho offerings here come in a bowl bigger than your head, filled with rice noodles and accompanied by the usual pho condiments (basil leaves, greens, sprouts, lime wedges and jalepenos). The Tai Chin includes thin thin slices of rare beef and rich pieces of beef brisket, my personal favorite combination, though you can choose among many. The beefy broth is delicious on it’s own, but a couple of shots of sriracha sauce kick it up, as they say, a notch. Despite the enormous serving I never seem to come away with any leftovers… but arrive hungry! Tomato Basil Soup at Globe Market, 762 Elmwood Ave.: This creamy rich tomato soup, perfumed with basil, is the perfect accompaniment for a grilled cheese sandwich, which fortunately is also on the menu. A big step up from what Mom used to provide, but still the ultimate comfort food lunch on a cold day. Globe rotates their soup offerings, but Tomato Basil is usually one of the choices. The Beans and Greens soup is my favorite for runner up, and all soups come with a nice chunk of excellent bread for dunking. Lentil Soup at Kostas Family Restaurant, 1561 Hertel Avenue: Yes, it’s a Greek Diner, and yes they do have a very good traditional avgolemono soup that is probably a more unusual choice than just basic lentil. But this is what lentil soup is supposed to be, chock full of lentils, but not so thick that you can’t break up your saltine crackers. It’s just a perfect version of a very straightforward dish, and what’s more comforting than that?
Chef John's hearty vegetarian chili is seasoned with ancho chili powder, jalapenos, and cocoa powder.
With Easter less than two weeks away, we are desperately trying to fit in all of our yearly Easter traditions and activities. I'm not quite sure we're going to be able to cross everything off of our list, but we did manage to accomplish one thing already: Planting a Lollipop Garden! We started this tradition years ago, when Dylan and Lexie were younger. They no longer participate in this activity, but it's still one of Lily's favorite Easter traditions, and Liam is just getting started! Planting a Lollipop Garden is so simple, yet so magical for young kids! Plus, it opens up conversation about new life, which is a great thing to focus on for Easter and Spring. The jelly bean "seeds" get planted in the soil, and after some watering and sunlight, they transform into a garden of lollipops! SUPPLIES: Potting Soil Containers for planting "Magical" jelly beans Lollipops in different colors and sizes We switch things up just a little bit each year. This year we opted for inexpensive, plastic Easter baskets. (At 99 cents each, it was a steal!) In previous years, we have used mini flower pots (one for each kid), used an extra large planter for an extra large Lollipop Garden, and even planted them with our real flowers. HOW TO PLANT YOUR LOLLIPOP GARDEN: 1. Have your child fill their container with potting soil. You may want to assist the younger crowd to minimize the mess. Just saying... 2. Plant the "magical" jelly beans in the potting soil. Make sure your child uses a bunch of different colors! Just FYI, taste testing will probably occur! 3. Have your child lightly water their Lollipop Garden and sit it in sunlight. 4. The most amazing thing will happen! Usually during nap time or overnight, the jelly bean "seeds" will turn into a garden full of lollipops! ;) Sometimes it happens during the course of one day, sometimes it happens overnight, and sometimes it takes a few days. Sometimes it's even discovered on Easter morning! Once their Lollipop Gardens bloom, my kids love to pick lollipops to eat! Although waking up to a garden full of lollipops is exciting, eating them is definitely the best part! Planting a Lollipop Garden is one of our favorite Easter traditions. It's simple and fun, and eagerly anticipated each year! It's time for Tuesday Talk!!! Grab the button, link back to your hosts and add your blog post link on the widget below!
