Complexity Level: Easy Peezy (No adult help needed!)

Ingredients:

  • 1 Large Heroic Plate (preferably melamine or any shatter-resistant material – think tough like a beetle!)
  • A handful of Colorful Flower Petals (real, edible blooms are best – make sure they're bug-safe!)
  • Snack-sized Delights:
    • 1 cup of Gummy Worms or Bugs (the candy kind, not the squirmy ones!)
    • 1 cup of Fruit Slices (think of bees buzzing around juicy fruits!)
    • A sprinkle of Edible Glitter (because who doesn’t want a little sparkle?)
  • Love & Fun: A heaping cup, mixed in with giggles and creativity! 💖

Instructions:

1. Gather Your Supplies

4. The Glittering Finale

  • Sprinkle edible glitter over your creation like the sweet dewdrops of an early morning. This not only looks fabulous but will attract the jealous looks of everyone around!

5. Time to Feast!

  • Gather your friends or family and show off your bug and flower garden plate! Snap those photos before everyone dives in—it wouldn’t be a garden party without some evidence of your edible wonderland!

Fun Bug Fact:

Did you know that butterflies can taste with their feet? That's right! They "taste" the leaves they land on to find out if it's a good home for their babies! Maybe your plate will attract some butterfly friends to admire your culinary skills!

Safety Tip:

While you may not have to involve an adult for making this delightful plate, if you decide to use real flowers, check with an adult to ensure they are safe to eat!

Final Touch:

Get creative! Add little signs saying “bee welcome” or “bug buffet” next to your plate to make it even more fun.
