#2 at Vern Patrick School

January 25, 2007

We held our second school-wide Family Body & Mind Night.  We had 7 stations people could go to.  We served healthy cheese sticks at one station.  We read stories in the library and students colored a bookmark.  Students and families did "Yogalates" for   Families also used the dance mats and tried out our newest station, Guitar Hero.  We had a station showing how much fat is in the foods we eat and at another station, families took a taste test to see if they preferred the taste of Kool Aid sweetened with Splenda, Equal or real sugar.

 Our next family night event will be April 26th.

Food Science - A Taste Test

Which Kool Aid tastes best?  The one sweetened with sugar, Spelenda, or Equal?

Our taste test showed that most people preferred the taste of Splenda to sweeten their Kool Aid.
