Ingredients

1 head lettuce
2 -3 celery ribs, sliced
1 (8 ounce) package parmesan cheese, grated
2 lemons, quartered
1 (8 ounce) box croutons
caesar salad dressing

Preparation

Split kids into groups of 2 and give them each one of the following jobs that they can do simultaneously. (Make sure the kids who need to use knives go 1 at a time and help them out).
job 1 - wash, dry, and shred lettuce with hands. put into a large bowl.
job 2 - grate parmesan cheese. put into a bowl.
job 3 - wash and slice celery sticks. put into a bowl.
job 4 - wash and quarter the lemons.
Once everything is prepared, hand a bag out to each child. Let them put their own lettuce and celery in their bag.
Put a small tablespoon of caesar dressing in each of their bags.
Allow each child to put their desired amount of parmesan in their bags.
The fun part -- get each child to SHAKE THAT BAG! (maybe to music?).
Once they are done shaking their bags, get them to place bag contents into a bowl. Squeeze lemon on to the salad and top off with some crutons!
