Deliciously Fun: How to Create the Classic 'Ants on a Log' Snack with Peanut Butter and Celery

Scrumptious Snack: Ants on a Log - Bug-tastic Style! 🐜✨

Complexity Level: Easy Peasy (Adult assistance may be needed for cutting and spreading)

---

Ingredients:

  • 3 Celery stalks (the logs of our adventure)
  • ¼ cup Peanut butter (creamy goodness)
  • ¼ cup Raisins (the adorable ants)
  • A sprinkle of love and fun! (A pinch of laughter and a dollop of creativity!)

Fun Variations:

  • Fire Ants on a Log: Use hummus and red bell pepper instead of peanut butter and raisins.
  • Ladybug Logs: Swap raisins for goji berries and spread with almond butter.
  • Ants on a Leaf: Replace celery with large romaine leaves!

Instructions:

Step 1: Get Ready for the Picnic!

  1. Rinse and Dry: Give your celery stalks a nice wash to make them sparkle! Dry them thoroughly because we don’t want soggy logs!

Step 2: Cut the Logs

  1. Chop Chop!: With an adult’s help, cut the celery stalks into 4-5 inch pieces. Each piece is a perfect little log for our ants!

Step 3: Spread the Joy

  1. Peanut Butter Party: Grab a butter knife and spread a generous amount of peanut butter inside the concave part of each celery stick. Make it thick enough to hold those ants (raisins) in place!

Step 4: Invite the Ants!

  1. Add the Ants: Sprinkle the raisins on top of the peanut butter. Press them down gently so they stick. Voila, your ants are marching across the log!

Step 5: Get Creative!

  1. Decorate: If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle some chia seeds or chocolate sprinkles for extra crunchiness!

Fun Bug Fact:

Did you know that ants can lift up to 50 times their body weight? That’s like a kid lifting a car! So, make sure your ‘ants’ are well-fed for their big adventures on your logs!

Safety Tip:

Using a butter knife for spreading is safe, but make sure to have an adult help with any cutting tasks. Safety first, snack time second!
