Final Answer:
The correct items to circle for each food group are:
- Milk Food Group: milk carton, cheese, ice cream, yogurt.
- Fruit Food Group: orange, pear, grapes, cherries, apple.
- Vegetable Food Group: corn, broccoli, potato, carrot, pumpkin.
- Grains Food Group: pretzel, bread, cereal box, rice, pasta.
- Meat & Beans Food Group: hot dog, strawberry (incorrect, should be crossed out), egg, cupcake (incorrect, should be crossed out), fish.
Items to cross out (do not belong in any plate):
- Strawberry (belongs in fruit, not meat & beans)
- Cupcake (belongs in sweets, not meat & beans)
- Soda can (belongs in drinks, not grains)
- Candy bar (belongs in sweets, not milk)
- Popcorn (belongs in snacks/grains, but not clearly in any group shown — could be debated, but likely crossed out as “not in my plate”)
Note: The worksheet has a few tricky items that don’t fit perfectly — the goal is to pick the best match for each group and cross out what doesn’t belong.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of kitchen safety worksheets.
