Graham Cracker Carrot Garden Snack

Pin to Pinterest

Whether you have a Winnie the Pooh party in Hundred Acre Wood or you are looking for a fun Easter Food Craft for the kids, this is such a fun garden snack for children. We used fun gummy carrots and created a chocolate cracker of goodness – because who said your veggie’s can’t include chocolate!?!

Ingredients:

  • Graham crackers
  • Gummy carrots – we got ours HERE
  • OREOs
  • 1 Cup light cocoa candy melts
  • optional: orange icing – use THIS to create orange*
  • optional: edible Easter grass*

*Note, we picked up gummy carrots from HERE but you could also make your own carrots using an icing bag with orange icing and Easter grass as the topper.


Directions:

  1. In a microwave safe dish, melt your candy melts on 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
  2. Scrape the white center from about 10 OREOs, place your chocolate cookies into a sandwich bag, seal the bag, and crush the cookies with the back of a spoon.
  3. Add a teaspoon of your melted chocolate to each graham cracker and spread evenly.
  4. Sprinkle your crushed cookies on your melted chocolate.
  5. Top each graham cracker off with 3 gummy carrots, let the chocolate harden, and enjoy!
  6. Optional: If choosing to using icing (over gummy carrots) lay your orange icing across each cracker is three 1 inch sections. Add edible Easter grass to the top.

Bunny Easter Craft for Kids

We had such a fun time creating these easy and quick bunny Easter crafts for kids. The steps are simple and you likely already have the craft supplies in your home!

Supplies:

  • Cardboard
  • White fuzzy yarn
  • Googly eyes
  • Pink pipe cleaners
  • Pink Pom-Pom
  • Hot glue/hot glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Marker
  • Optional: Bunny Shapped Cookie Cutter


Directions:

  1. Draw a bunny head onto your cardboard by starting with the ears, sides of the face, and bottom of the face for an even shape on all sides. You can even use a bunny shaped cookie cutter to trace your cardboard if necessary.
  2. Cut out your bunny with scissors.
  3. Carefully hot glue your end piece of yarn to the back of the bunny’s head and begin wrapping the yarn around the cardboard.
  4. Keep wrapping every which way until your cardboard is completely covered in white yarn.
  5. Once your cardboard bunny is wrapped, cut the yarn, and secure the end of the yarn to the back of the bunny with glue.
  6. Glue your pink Pom-Pom ball to the bottom center of the bunny’s face for the nose and 2 googly eyes right above that.
  7. Cut 6-3″ pieces from your pink pipe cleaner, twist the ends of 3 pieces together to make whiskers, and glue the ends on each side of the Pom-Pom nose.

  4. Mix well.
  5. Add syrup to cold Sprite and serve over ice.

I suggest adding Swedish Fish but place them to the side or serve in the beverage at the last minute – these gummies are no fun when they are cold and wet.

Whether you have a teen or a tween that thinks she is a teen, your young daughter is probably beginning to identify with herself and wanting to personalize her space. We found some of the most creative teenage bedroom ideas. From hanging chairs, to adorable comforters, wall art and more, we think you and your teen will find these rooms inspiring and creative so you can get started personalizing your own little space. Happy decorating!

You guys, some of these teenage bedrooms are to do die for. I might move into the kids bedroom (and move them to the master) after seeing this hanging chair from Serena & Lily. You can find where to purchase every precious thing from this room on her blog. | Nesting with Grace

This bedroom is too darling, isn’t it?! The upholstered bed is custom, the bedding is by Eastern Accents, and the rug by Feizy. Doing my research, I also found great deals on Rugs.com| Homebunch

Add this to your child’s bedroom for a reminder of their worth and  | Frugal Coupon Living

The before and after of this bedroom is stunning. They have sweet little tips from a decorator about pillows, wallpaper, colors, etc. Loving this tween study desk and the sweet accent from the hanging chair and sculpture. | Decorist


Making a sweet personalized nook makes all the difference. There is a lot of tween room inspiration from Hobby Lobby. I love the side table, the fringe decor, and color pallet.

This teenage bedroom was already beautiful, but the final result shows the power of a rug. Take a look at how dark (slightly ugly) this room was without a rug. I will now be shopping at RugsUSA – crazy low rug prices! | All Things Thrifty

I never thought of this. Take a look at this creative way to make a headboard using art!  The colors on this room are perfect.| A Kailo Chic Life

This blogger does it again turning geometric shapes into a headboard – perfect for a teen bedroom. I love all the touches of color working of a white starting point. | A Kailo Chic Life

This DIY Metallic Gold Headboard is pretty impressive too – think of all the savings you will have your teen bedroom makeover. Who doesn’t love the blend of palm leaves, pink and gold? | Sugar and Cloth

This DIY flower wall is fun, creative and so much easier than you think! Get ready to head to the closest craft store. | Sweet Teal

This space is totally personalized with photographs and so magical with the additional lighting – a perfect teen bedroom makeover! This is a great Instagram craft idea. | Urban Outfitters Blog

This tween room is beautiful and how stunning is that rug? I love the yellow Jenny Lind Bed. Take a look at the blog because there area lot of other cute ideas. | The Glitter Guide

This tween bedroom is so fun! Black, white, gold and chic all over! The colors of this room are perfect. I love how the mirror opens the room. | Meme Hill

How amazing is this tribal room makeover. Everything about it is cool and far from youthful. I think someone is going to feel really grown up in this teen bedroom reveal. | On Eight Oh Nine (I found that leather ottoman pouf for just under $60!)

Look at this secret little cozy space for your teen to relax and lounge – I love the tapestry on the ceiling creating a cozy spot to escape and read or listen to music. | The Little Diary Farm

Follow your arrow with this wooden arrow tutorial – what a fun arrow craft for mom and daughter (maybe dad too!) Perhaps on each arrow you can add some words of inspiration. | Two Thirty Five Designs

Add a sweet, fruity touch to a bedroom with these DIY Fruit Bulletin Boards. Make them using your typical peal and stick bulletin boards. | Tell Love and Party

I think I could sleep all day in this inviting Pink and Gold Bedroom Makeover. I love how inviting the bed is. | Randi Garrett Design

If you daughter is out of all tings pink/purple, take a look at this bedroom makeover with black, white and gold. I also love the hanging guitar case used to house jewelry – take a look on the blog! Also how cool is that Instagram photo art? | Babiekins Mag

You know, I still see hints of a little girl and that is why love this tween bedroom makeover. Another hot item, is that kid’s bedroom chandelier! How cool is that? | Forever Cottage

The before and after of this teen bedroom makeover is pretty impressive. The blogger also lists were she got each product! | The Decor Fix
