Exploring Corn


There's nothing like eating fresh corn on the cob. But before the yum-fest happens, let it be explored. Spend some time examining the ears of corn in their husks.

What does the husk feel like?
How can we find out what's inside?
What does the silk feel like?
Why do you think the corn is inside the husk and silk?
How does your family prepare corn?
Where do we get corn on the cob?
Have you eaten corn other ways?

Shuck the corn. Prepare the corn. Eat (and enjoy!) the corn.
