Ants on a Log {Earth Day}

I think almost every kid has had an Ants on a Log as a snack at one point or another (Well, I guess not the peanut allergy prone. Almond butter?). I can’t even begin to count the number I had as a kid. Shoot, it’s even a great mommy snack, now!

This tasty snack is the perfect way to celebrate Earth Day! Completely inspired by all things living, you can make it a lesson about life and saving our planet.

It’s a great interactive snack, too. You can prep the celery with the peanut butter and have your kids put the raisins (ants) on the log! For the more adventurous, you can practice counting the ants as they hop on the log and hop off into those bellies!
