What to Do:

Peel the potatoes and carrots.
Instruct the children to wash their hands.
Pass the vegetables around for the children to feel.
Let them snap a green bean.

Add a little water to the crock pot and cook on high until the vegetables are soft.
Let vegetables cool, and then invite the children to feel and see the difference.
