Easter Egg Snack Time

I know I have been really M.I.A. lately on my blog.

We had stomach flu go through our family last week. 

Then my husband went to the hospital with awful stomach pains & later that same day he was having surgery to have his appendix removed. {He is supposed to take 1-2 weeks off work & isn't able to lift anything over 10 lbs for 3 weeks, which has been hard for our daughter who is a daddy's girl!}

Then we had an annoying flood in our basement.

Then I got a bad cold.

And yesterday my husband's 12 year old cousin passed away. So very sad!

It has been an intense week!

I have been trying to get creative in ways to keep my kids busy (my son is 4 & my daughter is almost 2).

They have spent a LOT of time colouring. My daughter is obsessed with crayons & colouring books.

The other day I decided to try an idea I saw on Pinterest to have snacks for my kids inside plastic Easter eggs. They LOVED it!

Some snack ideas include:

• goldfish crackers
• cheerios 
• gummies
• fruit (berries, cut-up apple pieces, grapes)
• raisins or craisins
• mini cookies
• ritz bits crackers
• cheese- shredded or small cubes
• 
  

... pretty much anything that can fit inside the eggs that your kiddos like to eat!

Try it out! I bet your kids will think it's totally awesome!
