Monster snack

It's Lucy's turn to bring in the class snack today. 

We got permission from Lucy's teacher beforehand to read the "Paper Monsters" book to the class, make paper monsters, and then eat a monster themed snack. 

 It is a super fun book about some kids who created paper monsters that come alive and they have to figure out how to get rid of them before their parents wake up. 

Lucy was super excited about this day but mostly because of the fruit tray. She loved that he was "throwing up" the fruit.

We also made some monster pretzels. We melted a candy melt on the pretzel in the oven on low heat (150) then added an edible eyeball

Lucy also wanted to give her friends a special monster treat to take home. We ordered these cute monster boxes and filled them with...

gum and chocolate eyeballs. gummy worms, and stickers. 

Here are the kids making their paper monsters. It was such a fun day!

Patti and I both ordered several of these books and thought they would make good birthday gifts. So we made these fun monster bags to put the book and a bag of supplies (to make their own paper monsters) in.

This is what the bag of paper monster supplies looks like.
