Kwanzaa Snacks
Date: 12-20-99Kwanzaa Kabobs: This is fun for the kids to make, I know because I did it when I was in the third grade and now I do it with my classes and they love it. You'll need kabob sticks, bananas, apples, pineapple slices, and oranges. Cut each fruit into little pieces and place on a plate for each child. Let them put the fruit pieces on the kabob, however they'd like. You can substitute red and green toothpicks for kabob sticks. Use a black paper plate to add to the colors of Kwanzaa. Date: 12-12-99In my preschool classroom we make Kwanzaa Kabobs to round off our unit. You need toothpicks, traditional fruits of Africa-kiwi, bananas, pineapples, etc. Have the children place as many of the cut up fruits as they can on their toothpick. Simple and easy! ideaIn my second grade classroom I have all the children bring a piece of fresh fruit for a special Kwanzaa salad. I contribute some chopped nuts and a small amount of shredded coconut. The kids wash and help cut up their fruit. Then everything is mixed together in a big bowl with this "dressing"-a half cup of orange juice and a couple tablespoons of instant vanilla pudding powder whisked briskly. This healthy snack can be served in small paper cups with plastic spoons to make clean-up a snap. Date: 11-23-99Name: Dawn E-Mail: scc.dawn@ttlc.net. Corn is a very important part of the Kwanzaa celebration so you can serve corn bread with applesauce or peanut butter sandwiches with crisp red apples. Peanut butter is served to honor George Washington Carver, a famous African-American Scientist . This information comes from a book titled "Body Art: Seasonal Holidays"
