Food Art: A Sweet Baby Seal Snack

This sweet baby seal snack is so cute, you won’t believe how easy it is to make.  With just a few ingredients and a few minutes you can turn snack time into fun time!  Your kids will love it.

What You’ll Need

Ingredients:

1 green apple

A few black grapes

6 slivered almonds

Tools:

a kitchen knife (please supervise children if allowing them to slice)

How To Make It

1. Using your knife, slice 1 round piece off your apple and place it on a plate.  Slice off 1 more round piece and slice that piece into quarters.  You will use 2 of these quarters for the seal’s flippers.

2. Slice 1 black grape in half and place each half on the seal for the eyes.  Slice another black grape in half and place on the seal for the nose.  Next, slice 2 very thin slices off your remaining grape and place on the seal for the mouth.

3. Finally, take 6 slivered almonds and place 3 on each side for the seal’s whiskers.
