Success StoryThe Germinator
The Germinator
Author: Laykin Smith
Planning Unit: KSU Administration
Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General
Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
For Super Star Chef camp I created a “germinator”. It was a great activity for the kids, and they were shocked with how easily germs can spread. Children attending the camp were very excited to learn about why food safety is important and to investigate their hand washing skills. This was a great visual for the camp and I look forward to sharing it with more children in the future.
