"BAGGY BUGS"

(a fun way to eat whole grains and fruits)

 

1.
Place a graham cracker in a plastic baggy, seal it shut and crush the crackers into a fine sand using a large spoon. Suggestion: Use whole grain oat or spelt flakes, or granola instead of graham crackers. After the "bug hunt," sprinkle the whole grains on yogurt.

2.
Add a few raisins to the bag and have the kids dig for bugs in the sand. Experiment with other tasty critters--dried cranberry "ladybugs," carob chip "ants" and more...be creative!

3.
Definitely use a magnifying glass!
