Sweet Potato Hill

“Appealing hands-on activities encourage the children to discover how a sweet potato looks, feels, smells, and tastes. The children make a pretend sweet potato hill to learn how this vegetable is grown, harvested, and shipped to farmers’ markets and stores. Children have many opportunities to taste sweet potatoes plain and in salads, side dishes, and cookies. Families share in the sweet rewards through the activities and recipes of the Growing at Home materials.”
