Greek Salad

All the salad ingredients are in an uproar! Each one thinks that they are the most important element of a Greek salad and without them there is no Greek salad, until the mistress of the house adds them to a large bowl. Together for the first time, it’s a new world for all of them. With the help of tongs, they tumble and play and mix in a glorious salad of tastes and colors. It takes all of the ingredients to make a great Greek salad and a better world. Recipe included. For 6 to 9 year olds.
