Spice And Dice Program

As a part of the weekly S.T.E.A.M. programming, the goal of Spice-&-Dice is to integrate nutrition and health literacy into children’s programming.  Because 18.1% of the children in Granville County are food insecure, and 80% of those live beneath the federal poverty line, our cooking activities aim to teach kids how to cook healthy, cost effective, (& yummy). While cooking, children learn about the ingredients being used, (nutrition facts, etc.) and various math principles like fractions & portions.  This class is held monthly on Thursdays from 4pm – 5pm @ the Thornton Library.  Please contact Childrens Service Librarian, Amy Carlson @ (919) 693-1121 or amy.carlson@granvillecounty.org for further details
