The holidays are just around the corner, and this adorable turkey snack from our ABC Snacks series is a perfect way to begin your family’s feast.
In fact, our Gobble Gobble Turkey Snack is the best kind of snack–healthy, beautiful, and delicious. And what makes it even better is that your children can help you prepare the whole thing!
A couple of cute helpers helped us create the colorful turkey in our pictures, and I’m pretty sure I heard a few gobble-gobbles coming from the kitchen as our little friends worked!
It will add just the right touch to your Thanksgiving or Christmas festivities! But you may find that you don’t want to wait until the holidays to give this snack a try…it can be enjoyed all year long!
