Cuddly Kids Recipe: Little Lamb Snack

Ok, so in the children’s song, it’s Mary’s little lamb that follows her to school, but it’s unlikely that this little fella would make it all in one piece in the lunchbox. No matter … if your kids are like mine, they come home from school absolutely famished! One day they each came home to their own “little lamb” waiting for them, and boy did they love it!

Kids Fall Lunch:  Falling Leaves Sandwich

It’s officially FALL!!!!!

I’m so excited, because it’s my fave season!!!
{Even though it’s still 85° where I live, which is totally wrong.}

The leaves have yet to change colors, but I couldn’t help myself  in making a fun fall Nummie!!

The trees always show the first signs of fall.
Oh, how I adore all the pretty leaves changing color.

I wanted to come up with a new creative way to make colored leaves. While brain storming, my 7yo dropped her cute little pumpkin on the living room floor.  It’s not even Oct and my kids are already smashing pumpkins!! Let nothing go to waste…ROAST THE SEEDS!!!  I was elbow deep into the slimy pumpkin digging out the precious little seeds when it hit me:  DYE THE PUMPKIN SEEDS.  So, that’s what I did!  Added a bit of food coloring to them, and voila!!
We have pretty leaves!!!
They are so festive…not to mention yummy!!

{Click below for the complete recipe.}


~ Bread ~ Cheese ~ Pumpkin Seeds ~

Oh happy day when the leaves start falling…
I hope to see leaves changing soon!!!

HAPPY FALL!!!!
