                    A lemonade party was organised for the students of UKG, TAFS on 07 July 2017, during school hours. The idea was to introduce sweet and sour taste to the tiny tots, show them the process of making lemonade instantly and help in the development of communication skills, gross motor skills, confidence and team spirit.  Children enjoyed the demonstration on how to make instant lemonade by squeezing lemon into a glass of water and adding sugar, a pinch of salt and black pepper to enhance the taste. They enjoyed sipping the lemonade drink, colouring the cut outs of lemon, singing lemon rhymes and watching videos. They also had fun with word puzzles, toys and other equipments.

                    The activity helped the little ones to understand the health benefits of drinking lemonade in summers over the artificial beverages available in the market.
