MATERIALS: 1 or 2 lemons. Baking soda. Food coloring (optional). A little stick. PROCEDURE: First we have to cut the lemon's top and bottom, so you can place the lemon standing and they don't fall.

ASSEMBLY TIME!

Hello! By popular demand, here you have a video reviewing the songs and steps that María O. and I follow during assembly time with your kids.
