C is for Crayon...Craft.....and Chocolate!




Edible crayons!! Yep thats right! I thought this was a fun idea since Emma is learning her letters and what sounds they make. What better way to learn the letter "C" than do do it with a fun Craft, Crayons, an Chocolate! They are simple to make and really yummy! Here is what you do.

Go to your favorite craft store or Walmart and pick up some candy melts. Choose whatever colors you want. This would be a good time to pick up some paper in coordinating colors. I used the brightest paper I could find.





Next melt the cholocate according to the directions on the package. The microwave works great!


Cut your pretzle sticks in half. It helps if you score them a bit first for a cleaner break. Dip just the ends in the chocolate and let them dry completely on wax paper or tinfoil.


Emma liked helping with this!


Print and cut out Labels. Print them out from the Gourmet Moms on the Go's blog http://www.gourmetmomonthego.com/2008/12/crayon-wrappers-galore.html


This kids like to do the part too!

Tape the wrappers into place and there you go! These make a great gift for a teacher or a snack for school or a fun after school snack for the kids!
