March 27, 2018 By Kari Leave a Comment

A few simple ways to add even more excitement in the days leading up to Easter! Whip up these healthy-ish, fairly inexpensive to make, DIY Easter snacks for kids.

DIY Easter Snacks For Kids

All it takes is a quick trip to the grocery store with around $30 in your pocket, and you’ll be able to create these five cute Easter eats for your kids (and watch their little faces light right up)! Pack them in their lunch, do one a day leading up to Easter, or roll out all of them at once – whatever you choose! Either way, it’s a great way to build anticipation around Easter. Plus, this is the easiest way to get your little one to enjoy a healthy snack – it’s an experience they’ll even tell their friends about! Getting artsy with your kid’s food is a great way to ensure your picky eater is actually consuming something (it works every time at our place). Friends, this is SO easy to do and you’ll be ‘Parent of the Year’…for a least a week! 😉

Here are the secrets to these inexpensive and easy-to-make Easter treats…

First time going to Disney? We got so much great a First time going to Disney? We got so much great advice and awesome tips for how to maximize our first time at the park as a family.

➡️ The number one thing I want to pass along is to allow breathing room in your days there. Don't overplan it. Try not to be SO scheduled that you miss the magic. ✨️

Of course you want to have a general plan of the rides you want to hit, your strategy for tackling the pack, etc. but leave space so when suddenly Goofy is walking down the street and your kiddo wants a photo - you have time. 

➡️ Book your hotel and park passes ahead of time for sure. Reserve a character dinner too (we booked ours the day before and got the last spot). 

There are a lot of to-the-minute schedules you'll find out there for how to hit every ride and try all the food in record time but for a family with young kids, I don't recommend it. Just go with the flow and have fun! 🤗

➡️ Make sure to head a few reels back and see how we surprised our seven-year-old with the trip! Ask any questions below. ❤️ Like and save this post if it was helpful for you.

More Disney tips coming to my Reels feed and KariSkelton.com this week!
