Dragons Love Tacos Activity includes Jello.
Yeh, you heard me correctly. A Dragons Love Tacos Activity with Jello just felt right. It is a super spicy salsa Jello wash. Can you say that three times fast?
Now, how about Dragons Love Tacos? I mean, how many times can you read a book before it becomes an obsessive habit?
My boys adore this book. They think it’s hysterical and probably now eat more tacos because of it. #momwin This spring or summer, scoop up the book and cool the Jello. You don’t want to miss out on this sensory activity!

A book box is a way to help your preschooler retell a familiar story. It has supplies that can act as props for story retells.
A book box can help build comprehension with our preschoolers. As we read, we can retell familiar story including key details, ask and answer questions, and identify characters, settings, and major events in a story.
Using props to retell a familiar story is a lot of fun! In fact, here is a list of book activities we enjoy playing at home.

ALLERGY INFORMATION: My preschooler has a peanut allergy, and I could not confirm that Kraft Jell-o is made in a peanut-free facility. He did not eat the Jell-o.
I prepped this Dragons Love Tacos activity in advance.
-
Make the Jell-o according to directions. I used three boxes.
-
Stir in the veggies and shredded green paper (spicy salsa)
-
Put into the refrigerator until playtime!
PRO TIP: Use a storage bin for your refrigerator. This way, it will easily fit when making the jello, and you then have a great container for future use.
Read the book, and take the story to retell outdoors with a fun sensory activity! Then, peek around our favorite Kindergarten books for even more great reads.
