Recipes for Storytime

Page history last edited by Jane McManus 6 years, 4 months ago

 

 

   

Generally, a simple "snack" is preferable than a big treat when eating in the library. Little ones are quite happy with an animal cracker...or two. However, there are times when a particular storytime lends itself to being more creative. What have YOU had success with when it comes to "snacks?" BE SURE TO CHECK FOR FOOD ALLERGIES BEFORE SERVING CHILDREN FOOD IN THE LIBRARY. (For most recipes you can substitute sugar cookies instead of using peanut butter ones.) Think of Saxton Freymann when working with edibles. Traditional circle cookies, or cupcakes, may be decorated with funny, friendly or ghoulish faces. You can also decorate circle cookies for your favorite sport. Don't go crazy but have fun with the experience. Save the extra effort for special occasions, or for craft programs.  Because of allergies, you may elect to use a substitute for peanut butter, caramel or cream cheese works for most recipes.

Tips: have plenty of wet wipes, paper towels, waxed paper, plastic spoons, (using the back of a spoon,

rather than a knife, to spread is easier for Preschoolers to handle), & ask your staff to bring in aprons

or large towels to use as aprons.

Betty Crocker refused to give us permission to link directly to their website--that's why the recipes remain unlinked. JM

There were quite a few broken links, if you don't see your favorite recipe, try:https://www.pinterest.com/storylady101jm/recipes-for-storytime/ ('though, I can't guarantee those links either).
