Waste Not Want Not

Husking corn
Gan Daled was enthralled to learn that Native Americans did not waste anything and found multiple ways to use things



Painting with corn cobs
Following this Native American practice, we used corn cobs dipped in paint to make corn prints on our Thanksgiving placemats.

We also used corn cobs to play a Native American game where children threw the corn cobs into a basket.

Gan Daled used the husks from the corn cobs as paint brushes to make a colorful mural.
