Brooke剝水煮蛋的蛋殼

每個星期三的晚餐，我們都會吃滷雞翅還有雞蛋，是我們的上海美食，每次準備這一道餐點，孩子們就會幫忙剝蛋殼，”幫忙“意味著應該會幫助我節省時間，但是目前的情況卻不是那樣，她們的“幫忙”反而讓我花了更長的時間，但是，我知道，現在讓她們參與，就是對未來的一種投資，以後她們就能夠自己來！她們之前已經練習了好幾個星期，這一天16個月大的Brooke自己完整的剝了一顆蛋的蛋殼，幸運的媽媽我把她給拍下來了！最後，我還讓她自己給吃掉了，平常我沒讓她們直接吃掉的！
她拿著蛋在桌上敲敲，把蛋殼給弄裂開，然後她就開始剝了！
她首先從頂端的蛋殼開始剝。
注意到她用她的拇指剝蛋殼，我可是示範了很多次！要能夠用力適中，能夠把蛋殼剝下來，又不能太過於用力，弄破了蛋白，手指的控制能力要很好！
她把蛋放在她的大腿上努力的剝蛋殼
我告訴她“Brooke，把蛋轉過來”，這時候她好專心，我嚇著了她，她真的跳了起來！當孩子很專心於探索時，千萬不要打擾她！
好大一塊蛋殼剝下來了。你是否注意到，旁邊有很多蛋殼？接下來，要練習將剝下來的蛋殼放到碗裡！
最後剩下的一點蛋殼
她剝下來了
都剝好了，一顆剝的很乾淨的水煮蛋！
她把蛋剝成兩半。我才不要蛋黃，謝了！
Brooke享受勞動的成果
我家的兩個女兒很喜歡做這個活動，能不能剝的很好，跟蛋非常有關係，有一些很好剝，有一些剝起來就會很醜，有時候蛋殼就黏在膜上面，連成人要剝都不容易，但是，她們才不在乎是不是“成功”，她們就是喜歡剝雞蛋！
更好的是，在剝完了以後，可以享受這些有機的Omega-3的水煮蛋！
I did my student teaching (in my own toddler community) last Monday and mentioned to my observer that sometimes we have egg cutting as our protein snack. She replied something about how lovely it is to see the children peeling the eggshells… and honestly it had never occurred to me to have them do that part themselves before! So it was in my head, I was contemplating it, and now you've pushed me over the edge – next week we'll do egg cutting and I will demonstrate how to peel the eggs.
Also, the pictures are lovely.
Thanks!
I have learned that older eggs are easier to peel than fresh eggs. 🙂
Megan,
How did the egg-peeling go?

My assistant convinced me to do cheese instead, because they love it so much and it was the end of school – we only do one protein at a time. But definitely next year!
Steam your eggs in shells for around 15 minutes. Steamed eggs ALWAYS peel easily, no matter how fresh/old. I I can’t wait for my 11-month old to have a go at peeling an egg!
Thanks for this nice piece. My friends and I have been having “lessons” a couple times a week with our toddlers, and I was looking for something food related to do on friday – this will be perfect!
