Why It’s Useful
This activity supports:
Creativity & imagination — children decide what ingredients to add

Planning & organization — thinking about which ingredients go where
Thematic tie-in — works well in units about food, restaurants, nutrition
How to Use It (Step-by-Step)
Print the worksheet (on regular or slightly thicker paper).
Introduce by reading or talking about a burger (what kinds of ingredients are possible).
Prompt the drawing: ask children to imagine what their perfect burger would have (meat, veggies, sauces, unusual items).
Draw & color the fillings between the buns.
(Optional extension): Label each layer (e.g. “cheese,” “avocado,” “onion”), or write a short description/story about the burger.
Share & discuss — let kids show their burger and explain their choices.
You could also use this as a partner activity: draw your burger, exchange, and then try to recreate your partner’s burger.
