Instructions
  1. Edible Hangman: Make this classic game delicious by having kids write their letter guesses on crackers using squirtable cheese or a similar condiment. Veggies make up the hangman -- a celery body, cherry tomato head, carrot arms, and bell-pepper legs. After each round, players eat their words -- and their veggies.

  2. Make-a-Shape: Turn mini marshmallows or raisins into building materials. Using toothpicks as connectors, kids can create shapes such as hexagons and pyramids before they gobble their snack.
