Fun Kid Food {Bagel Bites Faces}

I’ve been crazy about fun kid food lately. I just adore the idea of serving my little ones meals and snacks that look really fun. My son will eat a PB&J sandwich any day but when I cut it to make it look like a dinosaur? He is so excited!

I love little ways I can add fun into their day and make eating fun. One of my latest endeavors was making these adorable Bagel Bites faces. As if pizza on a bagel needed anything else to make it awesome.

Now that school is starting for the year, I know a lot of families are looking to offer their kids a quality after-school snack to hold their bellies over until dinner and this totally fits the bill. As a mom, I love Bagel Bites for several reasons:

• They have 0 grams of trans fat. (So important to keep that out of our kids diets.)
• They use REAL cheese.
• They use high-quality ingredients.
• They’re baked, not fried.
• They’re quick! (Just a little over one minute in the microwave and you’re ready to snack.)

If you want to grab a box for your kids, here’s a coupon you can use.

 Make Bagel Bites Faces

All I did to make this super adorable kid food was follow the cooking directions on the package and then added things I had in the kitchen to use as features.

I used some fruits and veggies to add additional options, knowing they very well may pick them off. That’s OK, they are at least being offered. A few items I used are:

• Strawberries
• Grapes
• Blueberries
• Bananas
• Mushrooms
• Peanuts
• Cheese
• Rotini Noodles
• Candy eyeballs (These were too cute for me not to add, but these are your creation so feel free to omit them to reduce the sugar.)

The possibilities are endless, really. You and your kids can turn these into whatever you want. Brady was so excited to eat them, he was right beside me the whole time asking, “Can I eat them yet?” over and over.

I love when they are excited about something I’ve created.
