Food Story Time
We have many talented chefs, farmers, and other food professionals in the Baltimore area. But did you know they are great storytellers too?
Food Story Time for preschool and lower elementary age children integrates 3 focus areas- literacy skills, developing an interest and enjoyment in reading and listening to stories, as well as developing food literacy knowledge. Each story is followed by a related hands-on food focused activity to help integrate the skills and information being introduced to the students.
We also share this learning and fun with you as we post videos and activities that kids can do from anywhere.
2024 Monthly Food Story Times
We will be doing our live, in-person monthly Food Story Times in Title 1 elementary schools in Baltimore City this year. If you are interested in being considered, please email Julie at info@tastewisekids.org.
