This snack is hopping good!


Our Imagine That! class (3-5 year olds) is learning to playact a Sunflower and Bunnies musical story. Here is a snack that goes along with that theme . . .

What you need:
1/2 pear, sliced lengthwise
1 baby carrot
3 raisins
1 tablespoon of cream cheese
salad plate
knife


What you do:
Place the pear, skin-side up, in the middle of the plate.
Use a small amount of cream cheese to stick on two raisins for the eyes, and one raisin for the nose.
Cut one baby carrot lengthwise to make the ears. Use cream cheese to stick on the ears as shown.
Add a tablespoon of cream cheese for a "cottontail." Happy nibbling!
