Safe recipes include food safety steps, like washing your hands, that lower the risk of getting sick from harmful germs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Safe Recipe Activity takes about 30 minutes to complete and will teach you how to use the Safe Recipe Style Guide to turn a basic recipe into a safe recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.education.com\/activity\/science\/\">Science Activities and Experiments &#8211; Education.com Learning Library<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This site contains science activities for multiple fields, including hands-on activities, worksheets, and more.&nbsp; In the left panel, it can be sorted by physical science, life science, earth &amp; space science, and engineering &amp; science practices, as well as by topic, age group, and state education standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ysFIy4f0RZ4?si=78EO_B1tgUwLw-ZT\">4-H Friday Fun!&nbsp; Ice Cream in a Bag &#8211; The University of Maine (Video)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/learn-at-home\/4-h-friday-fun-videos\/\">4-H Friday Fun!<\/a> is a series of at-home activities for parents and kids.
