Thank you for downloading our Book Inspired Learning Pack for "What's Your Favorite Food?", by Eric Carle and Friends, from The Masterpiece Studio.
We love children's books, especially the ones that talk about our favorite foods, and the memories behind them, like this wonderful book my Eric Carle and friends. I hope you enjoy these learning resources in your homeschool, or classroom, which are intended for personal use only.
We wanted to give you access to the recipes to make all of the food mentioned in this book, so find their links, or YT videos below:
First up, is Pine Honey, Eric Carle’s favorite type of honey, that he remembers eating as a young boy. He mentions how rare it is to find, and I was able to find a video on a company who makes it, and how they do it! So cool, watch below.
