Hi everyone! Today I just thought of a really cool challenge idea but it might be a bit dangerous.This is a challenge I have created for DARE DEVILS!!! First collect as many small and tiny sweets as you can. Then put them in a bowl make sure it is full(if it is still not full,add other small foods) Set a timer for 30 seconds don't start it before you start. Press GO!And stuff your face full with sweets! as you put each sweet in your mouth,make sure you keep count of the amount of sweets you have put in as you go along. Now it's everyone else's go. Once everyone else has had a go, compare your scores.The person who ate the most sweets, is the winner.The winner gets the leftover sweets!😉😊😋😀😁😂😃😄😎😺😆😇😊💜💛💚💙💓💕💖💗 Good Luck! Jelly Bean:)

Hi everyone! Today I'm going to make roast vegetables!They're really simple but delicious. I was never a huge fan of veggies and I still am not but this is one of the only ways I like to have my vegetables. Some times people like to season their veggies. You can also do that by adding seasoning before or after you put it in the oven.If you would like a mixture of flavours on your veggies, try adding salt, pepper and a hint of oregano. Here's the recipe: 3-4 chopped potatoes any spices you like Special equipment: oven oiled baking tray 1.Pre-heat the oven. 2.Place the potatoes in the tray. 3.Put the tray in the oven. 4.Cook for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown NOT BURNT!!!!!!!!!! ( add the seasoning when you want) Hope you like this dish! This is a family recipe. Jelly Bean! P.S:this is an excellent side!!!👍😎

Let's keep safe!!! When using sharp tools,you must stay safe or have an adult  supervise you. I recommend you should only use a knife if you know how to do these things with a knife.If you pass the test,you are mature enough to use a knife whilst cooking. Can you chop,slice and peel fruit and veggies by your self? If you can't then here's a chance to show that you can by taking the test.When using sharp tools, you must always make sure to keep safe or it could lead to serious damage when you hurt yourself.If you need an adult to be with you when you are holding a knife,that is fine.  Take this test: Can you cut a cucumber 🥒 into sticks without getting hurt 😭? Can you chop a potato 🥔 into quarters? Can you chop meat or fish 🐟 without getting hurt? Do you know how to hold a knife or another sharp tool correctly? Are you able to chop,slice and cut fruit 🍉 and vegetables into piles? Can you create a swan out of just an apple 🍎? If you got 4/6 or
