The only thing more fun than making these little fruit and veggie critters is eating them! Equal parts silly, scrumptious, healthy, and hilarious, these cute and tasty snacks are great for kids of all ages (including the kids at heart). Try your hand at these clever creations or make up your own!

How to Make Fruit Frogs:

1. Cut a wedge out of the tip of a large strawberry, pointing towards the stem.
2. Stuff a raspberry wrapped in a mint leaf into the open wedge.
3. Stick two blueberries on top for eyes, using peanut butter or chocolate spread to hold them in place.

How to Make Veggie Ladybugs:

1. Top a cucumber slice with two basil leaves and a dollop of hummus.
2. Top with half a cherry tomato cut almost in half to look like wings.
3. Place a quarter of a Kalamata olive at the top for its head.
