Food is a creative and tastey way to tie lessons of mass and volume into the classroom.  Brainstorming different things you can make with one specific type of food is a great way to get children thinking about variety.  There are so many choices when it comes to flavours and foods and this activity can allow children to make connection between different items that use the same ingredients.
