This snack requires cutting.
What You'll Need:
-
1 cup blueberries cut in half
-
1 cup green grapes cut in half
-
1 package cream cheese
-
1 tsp vanilla
-
1 Tb sugar
-
Package of flavored rice cakes (or one large cookie base)
Directions:
-
Cut the grapes and blueberries, if desired in half. This is a great opportunity to talk about knife skills with your child. Please use caution during this activity. We used our butter knife to do this task.
-
Then have your child mix the sugar, vanilla and cream cheese in a small bowl.
-
Now it’s time to spread the sweetened cream cheese mixture onto the rice cake which is now going to become your Earth.
-
The last step is to tell them to create the earth by placing the blueberries for the water and the grapes for the land. You might want to pull out a globe like one of these to really talk about the Earth and what it looks like with the land areas and the water areas.
