Hey there! I’m Caroline from Khan Academy Kids, and I’m so excited to have you join us for Circle Time today. We have lots of fun activities planned, and I’m here with my friend Sophie. Hey, Sophie!
Today, we’re going to talk about breakfast. What did you have this morning? Some of you had oatmeal, and others had banana on toast. Speaking of bananas, Sophie, do you want one?
Sophie: Yes, please! But how will I get it since we’re in different houses?
Caroline: Let’s try something magical! Ready? There it goes!
Sophie: Wow, I got my banana!
Today, we’re reading a book called “Breakfast Time.” It’s about our friends Ollo and Peck and the breakfast they made together. They had a sleepover at Ollo’s house and decided to make French toast for breakfast. They found a recipe and gathered the ingredients: bread, eggs, and milk.
Do you know what “frothy” means? It means bubbly and foamy, just like when you mix eggs and milk together really fast.
Ollo and Peck needed help from Ollo’s dad to heat the pan because it’s important to have an adult help when using the stove. While Ollo’s dad cooked the French toast, Ollo and Peck gathered fruits like raspberries, tangerines, and pineapple to go with their meal.
Let’s learn some words! The word “French” in French toast starts with the letters F and R, which make the “fr” sound. Other words with the “fr” sound are “fresh,” “fry,” and “frog.”
Did you know French toast isn’t actually from France? In France, it’s called “pain perdu,” which means “lost bread” because they use day-old bread to make it.
Now, let’s make French toast! First, we need to wash our hands. Get them wet, use soap, scrub well, and rinse. Dry them with a towel, and we’re ready to cook!
For French toast, we need bread, eggs, and milk. Crack an egg into a bowl, add a little milk, and whisk until it’s frothy. Dip the bread into the mixture, making sure it’s covered on both sides.
With an adult’s help, heat a pan and add some oil. Cook the eggy bread in the pan until it’s golden brown on both sides. You can enjoy it with fruits like oranges, apples, or bananas!
Before we say goodbye, think about what foods you can help your family cook today. Maybe pasta, salad, or roasted vegetables? We can’t wait to hear about it next time!
Thanks for joining us today. Have a wonderful day, and see you next time!

Breakfast Detective: Next time you have breakfast, become a breakfast detective! Look at the foods on your plate and try to identify where they come from. Are they fruits, grains, or dairy? Ask an adult to help you find out how each food is made or grown. You can even draw a picture of your breakfast and label each part!
Frothy Fun Experiment: Let’s explore what “frothy” means with a fun experiment. With an adult’s help, pour a small amount of milk into a cup. Use a whisk or a fork to stir it really fast. Watch as bubbles form and the milk becomes frothy! Try this with different liquids like water or juice and see which one gets the frothiest. Talk about why you think some liquids get frothier than others.
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your house! Find objects or foods that start with the “fr” sound, just like “French” in French toast. Can you find a frog toy, a fresh fruit, or something you can fry? Make a list or draw pictures of the things you find. Share your discoveries with your family and see if they can think of more “fr” words!
