Ahoy mateys!
September 19 is Talk Like A Pirate Day. It’s a day that everyone can take part in—by dressing up like pirates, enjoying pirate-themed treats and, of course, talking like your favourite pirate! And who doesn’t love pirates more than kids?!
These pirate ship fruit cups are so easy to make and will help your little swashbuckler celebrate this fun day!
You Will Need:
To make one fruit cup, you will need:
- ½ cup of fresh blueberries
- 1 slice of apple
- 1 slice of honeydew melon
- 1 toothpick
Instructions:
1. Fill a small, shallow dish with ½ cup of fresh blueberries.
2. Slice your apple into segments and place one apple segment on top of the blueberries.
3. Grab a toothpick and stick it firmly in the middle of your apple slice.
4. Using a knife, slice one triangle out of your piece of honeydew melon. Stick this triangle piece of melon through the toothpick to make a sail.
Shiver me timbers—that’s an easy and healthy snack! Enjoy!
