LET'S TALK ABOUT ART!

Let’s talk about ART! When your little one shares her artwork with you, you can encourage her creativity while also having a great conversation! You can ask questions like, “Tell me about your art!”, “How did you do that?” and “How do you feel about what you made?”

Cooking Matters Recipe:

MINI PIZZAS

25 Minutes 6 Servings


Kids love to help in the kitchen. Let your child clean the vegetables. As you cut the vegetables fruit ask what color each one is. Together decorate each mini pizza like it is a piece of art.


Ingredients:

1 medium red or green bell pepper

8 ounces button mushrooms

1 large tomato

1 (4-ounce) chunk part-skim mozzarella cheese

6 whole grain English muffins

1 Tablespoon canola oil

½ teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon dried basil

1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce, no salt added

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Rinse bell pepper, mushrooms, and tomato.
  3. Remove core and cut pepper into thin slices. Slice mushrooms ¼-inch thick. Remove core and dice tomato into ¼-inch pieces.
  4. In a small bowl, grate cheese.
  5. Split English muffins in half. Place them on a baking sheet. Bake until edges are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Prepare sauce while muffins cook.
  6. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add peppers and mushrooms. Cook for 5 minutes. If needed, use a colander to drain vegetables.
  7. Transfer veggies to a medium bowl. Add tomatoes. Stir to combine.
  8. Stir spices into tomato sauce. Do this directly in the can.
  9. When muffins are lightly browned, spoon 1 Tablespoon sauce over each muffin half. Coat evenly.
  10. Layer veggies evenly over sauce. If using pepperoni, place one slice on each muffin half. Top with shredded cheese.
  11. Bake muffins until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 6–8 minutes.
  12. Let pizzas cool for 2 minutes before serving.

We hope you and your kids will use this to inspire learning all summer long!

SCREEN TIME

ARE SOME TYPES OF SCREEN TIME BETTER THAN OTHERS?

Common Sense Media

"For sure. There's a huge difference between an hour spent shooting zombies in an app versus an hour spent composing music online.


That's not to say that everything has to be stamped "educational" to provide an enriching experience. With any screen media you choose for your kids (or they choose for themselves) -- movies, games, TV shows, apps -- you want to look for how it engages your child. There's nothing wrong with a little mindless entertainment. But your kids will get more out of their screen time if you consider these "four C's."
