Fruit kababs

While living in US, I had subscribed to many parenting magazines after my son was born. Among them, 2 were my favorite magazines- AMERICAN BABY and PARENTS magazine. I had seen these fruit kabobs in one of those magazines, unfortunately I don't remember which one :( And I just loved the way they were arranged. It looked sooo appealing and tempting.So, wanted to try those fruit kabobs. And here I am with them :)

The fruit kabobs can be arranged in many many ways. Anything on the skewers looks appealing to the kids...Its all about making it fun for them. And yeah..we all know that no other snack can be more healthier than fruits for the kids :)

1. Apple and peaches on stick: Cut peaches and Apples and arrange them on the skewers alternatively.

2. Banana Bites: Dip chunks of bananas in yogurt first, then skewer. Roll the bananas in sprinkle. One can even lift the fiber factor by rolling the bananas in crushed granola instead of sprinkles.

3.Marshmallow Surprise: skewer strawberries and marshmallows . Put some chocolate sauce in a zip lock bag. clip off a tiny corner and drizzle designs onto marshmallows.

4.Double Melon: Marinate Cantaloupe and honeydew melon in a mixture of lime juice and brown sugar. Cut out fun shapes with cookie cutter.

I am sending this to Divya's CFK-Evening snacks event started by Sharmi of Neivedyam.
