Food Culture Art Experience Journey
Food is an integral aspect of culture and can serve as a link to one’s family or country. Taking time to appreciate cultural food practices can have an influence on the children. Children will get a better understanding of food from across the world if they hand-pick the food from the garden and make food themselves.
DIY cultural foods
Dumplings
Making and trying new foods from various cultures with different textures and flavors is part of multiculturalism and opens children’s minds up to the world. When children make dumplings in Chinese traditional costumes, for example, they may improve their cognitive and collaboration skills while learning about Chinese culture and customs.
