Nightmare

Materials:
Large carrots, popsicle sticks, cream cheese, raisins or olives,
celery, parsley, green beans, radishes, cauliflower buds, broccoli
buds, cucumber spears, any other desired vegetable, and cheese
slices.
Having trouble getting the younger children to eat their vegetables?
Let them play with their food! Peel several large carrots and cut
off both ends. With a paring knife (adults only) cut a slit in the
bottom of the larger end. Place several carrots on a plate. On a
serving tray, in the middle place a small bowl of cream cheese, and
surround with "garnishing vegetables". Cut cheese slices lengthwise
to strips of hair.
Insert popsicle stick in the slit in a carrot. Using the cream
cheese as glue, attach raisins or olives as eyes, and other assorted
vegetables as arms, legs, hair, etc. Let the child(ren) put on a
mealtime play before eating the characters. Lots of fun for the
whole family!
