To encourage your children to eat, start a little vegetable nursery rhyme ritual! Here are a few that we've loved and successfully tested at Good Goût... Feel free to share yours by posting them in the "comments" section!
The leek
I dreamed that I was a leek,
A tender and beautiful vegetable,
The owner of the restaurant
Bought me for three francs.
He told the cook
"Cut off the tips of his feet
Wash the tip of his nose
By passing it under the tap"
Fortunately, fortunately,
I woke up on time
Just in time, just in time
To avoid the accident!!!
The Dance of the Vegetables
All the vegetables, by moonlight
Were having fun - e
They were having fun - e
As long as they could - e
And passers-by looked at them
The pickles were going around in circles
The artichokes were jumping in small jumps
The salsify waltzed silently
And the cauliflowers waddled eagerly
The marriage of vegetables
-Spring had just sprung
We were in the garden
Leaning against the window
We were watching from afar
The artichoke, the artichoke that said to the apricot
My friend, my friend, will you soon blossom?
-Yes, I'm already getting ready
To wear beautiful flowers
It is to crown the head
From Compère the cauliflower
Who's getting married, who's getting married
With Mam'zelle Salsifis (encore)
- Gooseberry and raspberry
will be the bridesmaids
And for these beautiful young ladies,
it will take handsome gentlemen
Who will be, who will be
tarragon and pickle (repeat)
- And to close the party
You will have to play the violin
I have one at our house.
Said my friend the cabbage
I'll play it, I'll play it with Compère le Navet (repeat)
