I started with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and used a simple circle cookie cutter to punch out a round. I then used two different kinds of cheese (cheddar and provolone) to make triangle shaped rays. He has a celery smile and fruit roll up (green apple) sunglasses.
Next I used a celery stalk and grapes (cut in half) to make a tree. There is also "grass" (chopped lettuce and spinach) and 2 little bunnies (Annie's organic fruit snacks - strawberry).
For the picnic I used 2 Teddy Grahams and an apple slice cut into a square (with strips of it's skin) as the blanket. There are also "ants" on the blanket (protein bar crumbs) because no picnic is complete without ants invading the area.
The boys also had homemade watermelon popsicles for "dessert". We made them last night with our popsicle mold (found at Walmart for three dollars), Minute Maid watermelon juice, little chunks of watermelon and a splash of lemon juice.
They were very refreshing and according to my 4-year-old, "delicious".
Happy kids!
