Make Your Child the (Rice Krispies) Apple of Her Teacher's Eye
What does every teacher get on the first day of school? An apple. Smiling faces would be more than enough for any educator, but parents often usher them in with a less than shiny fruit that ends up in the teacher's lounge.
Mural Meals on the Go: Ants on a Log
After a Summer filled Popsicle fest, most kids face a let down in the fun food department as PB&Js get shoved into plastic bags for a run-of-the-mill lunch day. Moms can keep up the feast festive with easy and nutritious mural snacks that will have lil munchers grinning. Pull out a trick that mama taught you and craft some "ants on a log" with three healthy ingredients: celery, peanut butter, and raisins.
Mural Meal: Incredible Edible Rainbow
Life's not all sunshine and rainbows, but dinner can be! Take a few items from the fridge, dice them up, and mama's got a delish, balanced meal in no time!
Pull out a boiled egg, fresh blueberries, red bell peppers, carrots, and zucchini.
Mural Meal: A Preppy Pink Heart
If you want wee ones to take another little piece of your heart, serve it up on a pretty platter. We all know fish is good for the heart and full of protein so introducing it to tots at a young age will teach them to eat healthy. A cinch to cook, salmon is a tasty meal that leaves very little clean up behind.
Mural Meal: The Pasta Ferris Wheel
Every babe loves a carnival, but this one is free of fat laden funnel cakes and cotton candy. Instead, this fare is full of nourishing bites that will fill a tiny tummy with nibbles from most parts of the food pyramid.
Boil up a pan full of pasta and add marinara sauce to the cooked noodles.
Mural Meals: Incredible Edible Works of Art
Turn dinner into a work of art by slicing, dicing and arranging ingredients into a dish that your lil darlings will devour. Even the pickiest of eaters will fall for these elaborate looking plates that take just a couple extra minutes to create. Serve up the fruits, veggies, whole grains and proteins and don't forget the tot's dessert!
Mural Meal: Rice and Bean Zebra Supreme
Remember the old joke, "What's black and white and red all over?" A blushing zebra! Serve up a delightful striped meal to a zoo loving lil guy and keep him laughing for days at mama's culinary wit.
Mural Meal: It's a Vegetable Jungle Out There
Get tots fired up for dinnertime by creating a trip through the jungle on their plates. While staring down the lion, they'll chow down on veggies, starches, and delectable fruits. Let's set out on safari for the perfect mural meal!
Mural Meal: Choo Choo Grilled Cheese Train
A sucker for dairy products, my babe loves to take down a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. Instead of cutting it in half with a pickle in between, I like to add some commotion to the meal. And by that, I mean locomotion.
Mural Meal: Anna Banana Pancake
Nothing gets my daughter more fired up for breakfast than funny pancakes. Whether it's Mickey Mouse pancakes or chocolate chip flapjacks, she's ready to dip into syrup and dive right in with excitement. Adding a little fruit to the dish helps to provide more nutrients and vitamins she would miss if just eating the batter as is.
