Almost every Friday, ABC teachers set up "Fun Friday" for the students. This is a special time for the students to have fun making their own snacks with different kinds of food - and then they get to eat them! The teachers make Fun Friday creative: a Twinkie "school bus", mini-caramel apples, and animal-shaped grilled cheese sandwiches are a few of the snacks made this year. The goal of Fun Friday is to encourage kids to try new foods. By allowing the students to "cook" the snack themselves, they get a chance to get up close and personal with different textures, colors, smells, and tastes that they may typically avoid.
