Lesson #10

Sorry for the horrid picture, but this was an idea that we came up with after camp last week. My little man is allergic to a few things, hence the odd looking bread. His parent made his bread before I arrived and left it in a little baggy for me (TIP: DON'T FORGET TO ASK IF YOUR CHILD IS ALLERGIC TO ANYTHING!!) and I was asked to work around that for snacks and such.
We used the extra bread, peanut butter (fortunately he wasn't allergic to peanut butter!) plus half a banana. He already ate half of the banana for lunch... so what to do with the rest of the banana?
Spider Sandwiches!
My little guy is four years old and LOVES bugs. To honor him here is his new sandwich, Spider Sandwich. We named it so because the little seeds in the inside of the banana looks like a squished spider, upon closer inspection it really does, trust me. He loved the idea of Squids (Hot dogs and spaggetti) and so I thought, why not give Spider Sandwiches a try?

Recipe: Peanut Butter, 1/2 a Banana and a Bagal.
1. Spread the peanut butter over the bagal, or anykind of bread that you have available.
2. Stick bite sized pieces of the banana in round pieces around the bagal.
3. Serve on a Spider man plate and enjoy! (Actually the plate was picked out of random!)

Enjoy! And keep your inner four year old self happy!
