the great grape massacre
Crafts, Everyday August 19th, 2008I love finding ways to make cheap, healthy snacks for Drew & Brinley. It’s even better if the snack has craft-like techniques that the kids can participate in.
Last week we used paper lollipop sticks to string grapes into tasty popsicles. I would have used wooden skewers but I figured the paper lollipop sticks couldn’t do any damage if they were used as weapons after snack time was over. I’m just sayin’…
Some of the grapes put up a fight before being executed. Drew was able to conquer them, but not without a grimace and a grunt. Both very important techniques when it comes to overpowering grapes.
Into the freezer they go…and the waiting begins.
After a few hours they are ready to be devoured. My kids like them partially defrosted so they are still icy, but not hard as rocks.
Never has a massacre been so tasty!
What a great idea! I’ve never seen this yummy snack before! I love the concentratin on their cute little faces!
Amy you are the best mom ever! You Rock! You really know how to capture the moment with your kids. They will look back on their lives and KNOW that they were loved. I love you
