Ask the children what they think could help prevent apples from browning. Will lemon juice prevent apples from browning? Will it prevent apples from browning if baking soda is added? With the children’s help squeeze a half of a lemon into one bowl and then juice of the other half into a second bowl. To the second bowl, sprinkle baking soda a little at a time, stopping once the solution no longer bubbles. Label the bowls accordingly. Cut up apples into slices and add a couple to each bowl, tossing them well. Next, have the children observe the apples. (While waiting, the children can snack on the leftover slices of apple.) Ask the children which bowl of apples browned the quickest and which browned the slowest. If they children are old enough, have them write down what they observed during the activity.
The answers: Lemon juice will prevent apples from browning because the acid stalls the oxidation process, but if baking soda is added to the lemon juice, the acid is neutralized and the apples will brown normally.

Delicious Food
Sometimes themed snacks can take a bit of time to prepare and to make but this one shouldn’t be too hard. You can say, “God gave Adam and Eve delicious foods to eat in the garden he made for him. We are going to eat some of those fruits and vegetables that they may have had to eat.”
You can have some fruits and vegetables for children to eat because those would be delicious food to eat that is good for our bodies. If you’d like to extend the snack you can have children use child safety knives or plastic knives to cut up their snack before they eat it. They could even work on their counting skills by counting the pieces of fruits and vegetables that they will eat.
