Christmas Cooking with Kids: Simple Nativity Snack

I almost didn’t post this Nativity snack, but the girls loved it–and it was quite easy to make!  This would be a perfect cooking project for a preschooler or early elementary child.

Simple Nativity Snack

Supplies:

• Small bowl or cup
• Chocolate pudding
• Shredded coconut
• Yellow sprinkles
• Large marshmallow
• Small marshmallow
• Food pen (or just use a marker and don’t eat the small marshmallow!)

1)  Make chocolate pudding and spoon it into the bottom of a bowl or cup for the manger.

2)  Sprinkle shredded coconut on top and add yellow sprinkles for the hay.

3)  Place a large marshmallow for the swaddling.  Add a face to the small marshmallow and place next to the large marshmallow for baby Jesus.
