PAINTED TOAST

We went to Myah's friends birthday party yesterday and one of the activities was painting toast. They had so much fun doing this that I promised Myah we would do it again today. Basically, you give them a slice of bread. You make paint by mixing a little food coloring with some milk. Let them paint away (tell them to be gentle!) and then either put them under the broiler or in a toaster oven for a few minutes. Another option is to use cookie cutters and make fun shapes! Because this party was a tea party, and all the food was "little" they used small flower-shaped cut-outs! You can also put little sprinkles on them before toasting. Fun activity and it isn't a lot of work or mess! And they're edible!
