Today we are going to play a very exciting game.
Hooray! I really love playing games with my family.
What kind of fun game are we playing today, Father?
We are going to do a blindfold taste test.
Look, I have a soft yellow blindfold right here.
I want to try guessing the food tastes first.

I learned the word sour from the lemon.
Let us prepare for our second food taste.

I am completely ready to guess my food.
I have a wonderful strawberry for Mia now.
Here is your mystery food item, Mia. Feel it.
Mmm! This food tastes sweet and a little sour.
It is a fresh, juicy, sweet red strawberry.
You guessed it. A strawberry is sweet and sour.
Let me take off this soft blindfold now, Mia.
I can see the bright red strawberry on the plate.
Now we have one more special taste to try.
This new food has a very dark brown color.
I want to put the blindfold on my eyes.
I will tie the yellow fabric gently around your head.
Here is a tiny piece for your taste test, Mia.
It smells like sweet cocoa in my small hand.
Blech! What is that?
Food tastes very bitter to me.
Can you guess what bitter food you are eating?
Mmm! It is a piece of bitter, dark brown chocolate.
You guessed it right. Dark chocolate can be bitter.
It was bitter, but it was still very fun.
Let us drink cool, fresh water after our game.
