Orange Brains: How to make this Healthy Halloween Snack for kids

Ingredients

  • 1 orange for each child.
  • A handful of berries. I used frozen berries but you can use fresh ones if you have on hand.
  • Some cupcake toppers.

Optional  Party Food Ideas

  • Clementines
  • Fresh squeezed orange juice
  • Some Spooky shooter cups. I got those from the Dollar Store.
  • Some nuts (if no kids are allergic).
  • Plastic mini Halloween pumpkins.

 Make it

Orange brain:

  • Wash the oranges.
  • Let the children draw a scary face on the orange. It is less mess than carving the eyes, mouth, etc.
  • Cut the top and scoop the inside of the oranges. The children can eat it or you can use it as a topper. I prefer eating it. This step should be done by an adult.
  • Wash the berries and give them to their children. Let them fill the orange with the berries. If children are not allergic, they can top them with some nuts too.
