My kids love a fruit kabob. They love making them, eating them, talking about them, looking at them. I don’t know if it’s the rainbow colors or the novelty of eating fruit off a stick or what but the excitement when I bring them up is next level. When I added a Peep to the top of them to make “Peeps Fruit Kabobs” last week for this post they went wild. Absolutely wild. This is such a fun and cute Easter treat that, yes, involves candy but also involves nutritious and delicious fruit.
The possibilities here are endless. I love a good rainbow but you can use whatever fruit or berries you have on hand to make a pattern.
What was that old Kix cereal slogan? Kid tested, mom approved!
