Snacktivities!: 50 Edible Activities for Parents and Children (Paperback)
Format: Book
Author: MaryAnn F. Kohl (Author), Jean Potter (Author)
Publication Date: 2003
Brief Description:
Making art that is good enough to eat-and requires no time-consuming cooking or baking- is easy with this kid-friendly approach to the kitchen. This crafty cookbook encourages children to go beyond playing with their food-like the creations of great chefs, the finished products are tasty works of art. Each activity is rated by level of simplicity and estimated time to complete. Simple instructions help parents or older children guide young ones through the preparation of fun and nutritious snacks including tomato towers, alphabet sandwiches, and dinosaur eggs. Instead of disguising healthy food with cheese sauce or syrups, children learn that eating foods that are good for their bodies can be an enjoyable and creative activity. Cleaning up is made especially easy as all the art materials can be eaten, a fun fact that is not lost on budding chefs.
