The scent of Cinnamon

The first week we just explored with smelling different herbs and spices that were in my spice drawer.  I found some great little jars at The Dollar Store that worked well to safely store the spices.  Most of the kids in the first week were able to identify cinnamon.  The other spices were turmeric, nutmeg, oregano, basil and dill seed.
The second week I made labels of the names of the spices and the children took turns, many times during the week, to try their hand at matching the spices with the correct name.

Simple and engaging.
