Tomato Flashcard for Preschoolers
A round red tomato with a little green star on top — shiny as a bauble. The word tomato sits under it, and tomatoes live in salads, sauces and lunchboxes everywhere.
What this card does
Files the red one whose food group is genuinely up for debate.
At the table
Compare a windowsill tomato with a fridge tomato — one of them is wrong.
What it teaches
One food, two categories — categories bend, and children notice.
Getting it on paper
Pair it with the apple card — the debate deserves both sides.
Tip for today
Let both answers stand tonight; the argument is doing its job.
