We were at a Chinese restaraunt the other day and I was telling B that sometimes people eat rice with chopsticks. I was trying to show him what I meant and we were giggling as I failed over and over again."Do you want to try, B?" "No thanks, I'm going to make letters with them." Another great idea I should have thought of myself!
Next time you are at a restaurant with chopsticks give it a try or hunt for sticks in your yard to make letters and words.

What a great spur of the moment idea!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I have two chopsticks stories-
ReplyDeleteI lived in Japan for 2 months and was out to dinner with a table of Japanese people who couldn't speak English. They had a ball making fun of me as I tried to fit in and eat like they were- not fair!
2nd story- one time I put couch pillows on the floor and made Chinese and we all tried to eat w/ chopsticks- fun family night- and funny to watch each other. We shouldn't have just made letters like B! :)
Take Care!
B is so smart! Awesome idea, and one I should've thought of myself!

Hi! Thanks for the comment on my blog - I love the ideas that you have here on your blog! I tried to find the "Team Umizoomi" episode online so that I could print the recipe card out for Jake but I think it's too new for them to have it on their site yet. Bummer!
ReplyDeleteThis chopstick idea is a great one! Thanks ;)
