There are two more days left to Crunch! The Missouri Crunch Off has become an annual event at The Goddard School in Oakville. This was their third year crunching apples, carrots, radishes, and other crunchy vegetables. Their event focused on a farm theme where they taste-tested the apples and vegetables. The radishes were not a favorite, but they were proud of the preschoolers being adventurous in trying the new vegetable.
Cindy Pyatt, Owner, and Kelley Nelson, Director, look forward to the event as it builds healthy habits, and encourages social interactions between the children, families, and staff.
