- A whole! carrot
- A slice of cheese, and miniature cookie cutters to play with it
- Half an apple, the hole filled with peanut butter and porcupined with pretzel sticks
- A snack mix: peanuts, craisins, dry cereal, and one sweet
What would you add to the list?
If you have a chance to pick sweet cherries, pick them with the stems on, and freeze them on a cookie sheet individually, then bag them up in ziplok bags. On hot days, take several out for each child…like popsicles…on a stem. At Renita’s, she took the little dixie cups for dispensers (clear plastic work best because the finished product slips right out), blend a quart of home canned peaches, put a spoonful in the bottom of each cup, add a spoonful of yogurt to the top, insert a popsicle stick into each…freeze!
One of our favorites:
grape lollipops created with grapes and pretzels. It’s mess free. Fun. And mostly healthy!
Oh yum. What great ideas, both of you!
