Toddler Friendly Valentines Day Treat!

I love February and Valentines Day! I have so many craft ideas spinning through my head, I don’t know where to start. 🙂 I haven’t gotten to all of them yet, but this awesome recipe popped up in my Pinterest feed a few weeks ago and I had to try it! (With a few modifications of course).

Full disclosure the original intent of this was to be a super healthy toddler snack and then I went to Target and got side tracked by pink M&Ms and Teddy Grahams so its now considered semi-healthy. The good news is the girls love it and its a nice balance of sweet and salty for a little heart healthy treat. 

Ingredients: 

– 2 cups dried cherries, craisins or cranberries
– 2 cups yogurt covered raisins (I used dark chocolate)
– 3 cups of Teddy Grahams (I used honey flavored, you could also try dark chocolate)
– 4 cups of mini pretzels
– 4 cups of chocolate Chex 
– 2 cups pink/red M&Ms
Simply combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix. The girls seem to love the raisins and Teddy Grahams the best. I prefer the M&Ms and chocolate Chex. (Chocolate Chex might be the best invention ever! AND its gluten free!)  The pretzels give the mix a nice balance. Its cute, colorful and a fun treat! 

The treats fueled us to do a few other Pinterest projects including our homemade Olaf hearts and my favorite, a cute re-writeable picture frame.

This frame is from Target and I simply picked out some fun paper and wrote the “i love you because…” message. You can then use any dry erase marker to leave messages. I have this in our master bathroom so on crazy days we can remind each other that sometimes its the little things that make a difference. 
I hope you and your family have a Happy Valentines Day!

I am loving my new morning reading habit. Just finished my third book since starting this habit through Miracle Morning that you suggested! I love my morning (me) time. I actually am more productive throughout the day, am eating better, staying more positive, and sleeping so much better. I love the changes because of Miracle Morning and you! I have decided to start a new business. Wow! I wasn't even thinking that going in. I just have opened my mind and listened to my heart and decided to go after what I want. Life changing!
