Yes, indeed. Today is the day that you need to eat your vegetables! Personally, I love veggies, so this isn’t a problem. I love them so much I’m going to share my favorite veggie facts! And don’t forget to take a look at the link to the veggie garden packet below. It’s only $2.99 for over 20 activities and all the accompanying printables. Good stuff!
Fun veggie facts:

The ancient Egyptian workers who built the pyramids were paid with radishes.

-
