Hello my NEMs!
You are going to be Mom of the Year with these snacks that look like DOLPHINS! They are easy to make with your Kid(s) for a playdate, classroom snack, or birthday! I made these for Maddox’s year end school snack and they were a HIT! 😉
What you’ll need:
- Half size clear plastic cups
- Bananas (each banana will make one Dolphin, but you’ll use the other half for the second snack)
- Grapes – wash and pulled off from stems
- Goldfish
- Black Sharpie
- 1 Lemon
- Graham Crackers
- Strawberries
- Chocolate frosting or some sort of thick chocolate
How to create DOLPHIN Snack:
- Measure one banana to see how much you need to cut off – you will use the TOP of the banana which will be the nose
- Cut the end of the stem just a little to make it even then cut it in half just enough to fit a Goldfish inside
- Make eyes on each side
- Cut your lemon
- Put a few drops of lemon in the middle of each cup (this will help keep the bottom from browning)
- Place the banana in the middle and use the grapes to hold the banana in place
- Add the Goldfish
- DONE!
Using the rest of the left over bananas:
- Cut up the bananas in 1/3 inch circles
- Cut the strawberries across the top so that they are circular as well
- Place the square Graham Crackers (or spoons) on a flat cookie sheet
- Add just a tad of the chocolate frosting in the middle
- Place the banana on top add another dab of chocolate
- Add a strawberry on top
- DONE!
Hope you like this quick and easy kid snack!
