My son's 1st train birthday party seems like so long ago now but the edible landscape idea is perfect for back to school and it makes eating healthy snacks fun for your kiddos all year. Depending on the age of your kids, they may even like to help create the scene before eating it!

Playing with food is not always a bad thing and in this case, it is the perfect way to turn your winter mealtimes into a fun art project {especially when indoor projects to keep your kiddos busy are sorely needed!}. This time around we made Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer pulling a sleigh full of toys.

Lunches around here have been pretty fun lately because my son and I have been using our Christmas and winter cookie cutters to make edible art scenes. This is one instance where I think playing with food is perfectly acceptable! It is especially perfect for a cold winter day when you need an indoor project.
