Easy School Birthday Treat

October 1, 2012 Riley Cooking, Family, Teaching

For my daughter’s birthday, I found this idea online in a few different spots, and it’s a clear winner for people who want to send easy and/or healthy treats into school. Mine was a mix of both — Oreo’s Birthday Cake cookie for the cavity-lover and pretzels for someone with less of a sweet tooth. Could just as easily fill the snack bag with carrots, grapes, celery, raisins, cranberries, almonds, etc. My daughter painted the clothespins and stuffed the bags, and I helped clip them and add the pipe cleaner antenna. She was quite proud of herself and far more excited to bring these to school than she has ever been in the past!
