Make a rainbow face

Lets create a Smiling Snack!

We want to make snack time fun and healthy, so we're challenging you to create a snack that looks like a happy face.

 

What You'll Need:

  • Some colourful fruits (like strawberries, bananas, and blueberries)

  • Soft vegetables (like cucumber slices and cherry tomatoes)

What to do:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Cut the fruits and veggies into small, child-friendly pieces.

  2. Make a Face: Arrange the pieces on a plate to make a smiling face.  Maybe you could use a banana slice for the mouth, blueberries for the eyes, or a strawberry for the nose. Get creative!

Extra Fun Tips:

  • Use Lots of Colours: The more colour, the better! Try to use at least three different colours.

  • Add Details: Use small pieces of fruit or veggies to add details like eyebrows or hair.

  • Smile Together: Take a picture of your smiling snack and share it with us. Don't forget to give us a big smile too!

 

Enjoy making and eating your happy, healthy snack.
