valentine's day toddler snack mix

 

for Valentine’s Day this year Lauren helped me make these little trail mix snacks to give out to her friends at her Valentine’s Day party. It was about as easy as it gets for toddler to do - just pour/dump in all of the ingredients and mix! I kind of just estimated on the ratios but it ended up being a fun activity to make and a tasty snack that was easy to share!

  • 1 bag Craisins

  • 1/2 box Very Berry Cheerios

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. mix all of the ingredients together in large bowl (adding more or less depending on what you like!)

  2. scoop into little bags for a tasty treat on the go!

Then, Lauren had some fun with paint on canvas paper making swirls with pink and red paint. When she was done, we traced hearts out with cookie cutters and cut out the heart-shaped cards for her treats. I hole-punched them and tied them onto the snack bags with pink yarn. I love how easy this was - I feel like you could easily change up the ingredients for different themes!
