SUMMER FOOD ART is our FAVORITE & YUMMIEST kind of ART!
A Fun & Yummy Food Art Project to make together this summer! All you need to build your seascape are: graham crackers, white frosting (vanilla is our favorite!), food coloring and your favorite candies and snacks
Choose your sea color, add desired drops of food coloring to frosting, & mix
Spread onto your Graham Crackers. Mix as many sea color combinations as you like!
Sprinkle crumbled graham crackers as sand. Decorate your seascape scene with your favorite candies and snacks!
