Treats

Make Butter for a Teddy Bear Snack:
While studying the letter B and bears we make butter. Depending on the number of children, you will need 1-2 pints of cream. For 18 children I used 1 pint. Place in a clear plastic jar, leaving several inches for expansion. Then have the children sit in a circle. They each count to ten as a child shakes it. Pass, count/shake, pass, until the cream has turned to butter. Pour off the buttermilk and, if you wish, knead in a tiny bit of salt, for taste. We don't add the salt. Then we spread this on brown bread that has been cut into the shape of a bear.
