Junior Chef: Fancy Fruit Kabobs

How do you get kids to try different foods? You make it fun of course!

This is what we did this month at our Junior Chef event. We made fancy fruit kabobs! You can use any fruit for this, but we went with easy ones of banana and apple!

First we gave the kids a plastic knife to practice cutting their banana into small pieces. This is a great easy and safe way to teach kids how to use a knife!

Then we handed out the apple pieces and they began to string them on their skewer, of course with moms supervision!

Then the real fun began!
First we rolled the kabobs in coconut, then we added a few sprinkles for color and then we had yogurt for dipping!

Was it messy? Absolutely! Was it fun? Of course! And the best part... the kids all loved their fruit creations and ate them all up!

Many of our moms said they will be doing this at home, makes a fun activity and a healthy snack at the same time!

Thank you Huggies for supplying the much needed wipes for this messy but awesome treat!
