Books for Lunch


I've heard of muffin tin lunches before, but lately I've heard of people basing them on a children's book!  I loved the idea and started planning a bunch of muffin tin lunches based on some of our favorite children's books.  Here is our first one.  The food is based on Goodnight Moon.
The milk was for the cow jumping over the moon.  The moon was the marshmallow.  The three little bears sitting on chairs were Teddy Grahams on cheese chairs.  A star was made from a cookie cutter and cheese.  The two kittens were peanut butter sandwiches cut out with a cat cookie cutter.  The red balloon was grapes.  Applesauce was the mush.  Last, the square cracker was the little toy house.  Ava loved this and ate every bite. (She is not the best eater either.)  I can't wait to do more. :)
