For Discussion

11. Describe a time when you have had lots of fun, even though you got really messy. (or maybe it was fun because you got messy?!)

Cooking can definitely be one of those times! There are lots of activities that are messy and fun – playing outside, going for bushwalks, visiting a farm, craft activities, jumping in puddles … what’s your favourite messy fun activity?

12. What are some ways we can look past the outside to see the beauty inside people?

Our eyes judge things very quickly, but sometimes we need to go a bit deeper to find out what’s inside, so we can realise it’s all made of the same good stuff!

This is certainly the same with people – we need to take time to get to know them instead of passing judgement based only on what they look like. We close off amazing friendships when we judge too quickly by what people look like, or what they do and don’t have.

Lots of people are AMAZING, and getting to know them opens up a whole new world of love and friendship to those who take the time to truly know and understand others. We need more of this to grow a better world.

13. What is your favourite thing to cook?

Chocolate cake? Roast dinner? Omlette for breakfast? Salad for lunch? What things do you like to cook?
