      To assemble:<\/strong><\/span> Place 1 burrito in the middle of 1 piece of foil. On the lower third of the tortilla, spread 2 tbsp rice, 2 tbsp burrito mix, 1 tbsp tomato, 1 tbsp corn and 1 tbsp cheese. Roll the burrito up from the bottom, folding in the sides when you are halfway, then finish rolling up. Wrap the foil around the burrito to hold it tightly in place. Cut each burrito in half.<\/p>

      To Serve<\/strong><\/span>: Most older children can unwrap and eat a burrito from the foil, with support to do so. Older children may also be able to make their own burritos, with support to wrap them up. Younger children may benefit from \u2018deconstructed\u2019 burritos where no wrap is served but a bowl of the other ingredients is served together.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
