My boys loved the Carrot Cake Protein Bites so much I decided to try making a new variation. I really need to make these in larger batches though because they get eaten in only a couple days. The boys love them so much. Plus I added these into my bento boxes for dinners. Banana Bread …
This week is all about dinosaurs and I found way too many fun ideas!! My list was overflowing with great crafts!
A Craft a Day gives you five activities that you can enjoy with your kids, one for each day of the week. Most of these activities work well for preschoolers, but you may be able to adapt them for your toddler. If you want to learn more about the basics of A Craft A Day you can find them at a Craft a Day: Coming Back Soon. I will post the crafts on Saturdays so you can use the weekend to get any supplies that you may need. We are making our way through the alphabet this year so if you missed a you can find it here.
Now I’m not supermom and I don’t expect you to be either. We don’t always get to each activity, sometimes life is just too busy. Hopefully you may try one or two of these activities with me and my kids! You don’t have to do every single one. You don’t have to be doing preschool with your child. I just hope to give you a resource for some great fun with your kids!
Supplies: cocoa, sugar,butter, milk, food color, peanut butter, oats, Elmer’s glue, salt, card stock, pipe cleaners, bucket, dirt, sand, flour, salt, water, plastic dinos, tissue boxes, duct tape, paint, kitchen sponge
If you do any of these crafts and happen to take a picture or write a blog post about it please make sure and share your link in the comments. Also don’t forget to link the original crafter! I may feature you and your blog on the following weeks post!
I remember making these no bake cookies with my mom when I was little. Of course we just made them we didn’t associate them with Dinosaurs. I loved how Stacie renamed these cookies and gave each ingredient a creative dino twist. You can check out her recipe here: Dinosaur Snacks: Yummy and Icky Treat.
Ingredients: Sugar (crushed bones), Butter (fat), Oatmeal (Dead Grass), Peanut Butter (Dead Bugs), Cocoa (Dirt), & Milk w/Green Food Color (Swamp Water)
The boys took turns adding ingredients
I quickly boiled the sugar, butter, cocoa, and milk
The boys spooned out the cookies (though halfway I had to take over)
Zane practiced his letters while we waited for them to cool
They loved these cookies! My husband super duper loved them! I was surprised to find each cookie only 128 calories and way worth it!
Do you have a creative recipe that you do with your kids? Have you seen a cute food recipe you want to do with you kids?
I have finally decided what I am going to do for neighbor gifts. Every year I try to make our neighbors a gift, I also make a few extra for just in case. This year I am going to be making Cookie Dough Log Rolls. I’ve seen them in a few different craft places, but …
