For my son, in kindergarten, snacks are now a controversy. We can't provide anything with any kind of a nut, which rules out peanut butter. We can't allow fruit snacks because apparently some children are sensitive to smells and we can't have any "sweets". I'm thinking we are now down to just broccoli, carrots or apple slices. Well, being the "non-traditional" mom, I chose to be as creative as possible with our limited options. This is an "apple" that actually has apple slices and a small container of caramel dip inside.
The instructions are easy: simply insert a snack-sized baggie of apple slices into a balloon with a individual caramel dip. Blow up the balloon. Wrap the balloon in Red String. Paint it with a solution of glue/water. Allow it to dry. Pop the balloon which will then shrivel, pull it out. You are then left with an apple shaped item that encloses apple slices and caramel dip. Add a leaf and it's perfect!
The teacher's loved this so much that they didn't even allow the kid's to eat their snack. They sent it home for the parents to enjoy too. That's "non-traditional"!
