About This Video

In this guided activity video, Olivia leads Vanessa, Dustin, and Tia through making simple yogurt parfaits.

The recipe uses plain Greek yogurt, fruit, and a small amount of whipped cream. Olivia explains that parfaits can work as a snack, breakfast, or lunch, and viewers see each person build their own bowl with yogurt, blueberries, raspberries, or other favorite fruit.

The video is relaxed and social, with friendly conversation while everyone prepares and tastes their parfaits. It gives viewers a clear example of making a simple, flexible food option with just a few ingredients.

Good For

• Caregivers looking for an easy guided activity video with minimal prep and a flexible recipe.

How to Use This Video

Use this video as a simple cooking activity, snack idea, or food-prep routine.

Caregivers can gather the ingredients ahead of time and make the parfaits alongside the viewer. The first time, the caregiver may want to model each step. After that, the viewer may be able to take on more of the routine, such as choosing the fruit, scooping yogurt, adding toppings, or assembling their own bowl.

The recipe can be adjusted based on preferences, dietary needs, or available fruit. Plain Greek yogurt, berries, bananas, peaches, or other favorite fruits could all work.

Because this activity involves food preparation, caregivers should provide support as needed with opening containers, portioning ingredients, using utensils, and making safe food choices.

Over time, this can become a familiar snack routine that supports choice, kitchen participation, and growing independence.
