This year we’re celebrating a very Healthy Valentine’s Day!
We’re not getting chocolates or candies. As much as I love chocolate and candies, it doesn’t fit in our healthy eating choices.
I still wanted Valentine’s Day to be fun!
This is a super easy way to make some fun, healthy treats for your kids…oh, and you too!
You’ll need:
- a heart-shaped cookie cutter
- a knife
- pink or red fruits (eg. Watermelon and strawberries)
Directions:
Watermelon:
I sliced the watermelon as thick as the cookie cutter is tall, but you could make them thinner as well.
Then I lined up the point of the watermelon to be the point of the heart and cut out the heart shape.
Strawberries:
I sliced the strawberries in half and cut off the green parts.
Then with the flat inside part facing up, I cut the “v” shape out of the top.
Pack for lunch:
Once everything is cut up, it’s ready to be packed up for lunch!
Other great red and pink fruits to do fun things with:
- cherries
- raspberries
- grapefruit
- apples
