fruit, such as apricots
(or any your preference) |
| Tie a knot in the end of a piece of
shoestring licorice. Color of your choice. Thread honey combs or fruit loops with favorite
dried fruit, apricots are good. Finish with an
apricot,strung lengthwise [for head] and currents
for eyes. Split licorice at end to make forked
tounge. This is simple and keeps the kids busy
while you are getting ready for picnic or party;
and they have made somthing to give to the other
guests themselves. Be sure they keep one for
themselves. |
