Draw a Nose

Draw a large nose. Then below the nose under one nostril write like, and the other doesn’t like. You will use this later as part of an activity.

Guess That Smell

Guess that smell – take a few different items that your child may recognize – ground coffee, onion, cinnamon, lemon, and black pepper. Blindfold your child and have them guess what they are smelling. Use the nose you made earlier in the day to have them sort the items by like and don't like.

Art

Paint with smell. How? Take spices – turmeric, chili, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla. Add the spices to the paint that matches the color of the spice and paint! Turmeric – yellow, chili – red, vanilla – white, ginger – orange, cinnamon – brown. Add a teaspoon of each spice to the paint. Then paint!
