Taste tests are fun to have with children as it is neat to see what their reactions are to different foods. When I have done this in the classroom I have had out three different types of food for children to try. For example: Sweet: Candy Corn; Salty: Pretzels; Sour: A lemon
wedge. Of course if you can think of other items to try that is great. Have all the children sit down together, hand out each item one at a time and have them all try it together then record if they liked it or did not like it. If you would like the children to close their eyes and trust you they can try the items that way. If you would like to print out a Taste Test Chart to record the children’s answers you will find it at the end. I do not tell the children if they are going to eat something sweet, salty, sour, I have them try it first and then say: “Tell me what your taste buds (the bumps on your tongue) tell your brain. Do you like it? It’s okay if you don’t like it because we are all made differently and some people may like it more than others. Is it salty, sweet or sour?”
You can say: “Are you glad you trusted me to try these foods? Did you like the sweet food or sour food? Sometimes trusting Jesus can be hard when we can’t see Him. Jesus promises good things to people who follow Him. We can trust Jesus will take care of us and be with us. What did Jesus do after He was raised from the dead? Jesus showed many people that He was alive.”

Write your child’s name on a half sheet of paper in marker. Next, give your child the paper and glue. Have your child trace their name with the glue the best they can. Lastly, give your child different items to decorate their name. Some items you could use are: beads, pom poms, glitter, little rocks, etc. This can be a difficult task for some children to do, so make sure you give them as much time as they need.
Here is a video on this project if you'd like to watch it.
