All-Star Fudgy Baseballs and Bats

1 c Carob powder

1 c Water

1/4 c Honey

1/4 c Peanut butter (smooth or cru

3/4 c Wheat germ

3/4 c Rolled oats

2 tb Dry milk powder

1/2 c Unsweetened shredded coconut

1 ts Cinnamon (optional)

1/2 ts Grated orange rind (optional)

In a small saucepan, combine the carob and water. Bring to a boil over

low heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Add the honey and

peanut butter and continue cooking for about 5 minutes, or until syrup

is smooth and slightly thickened.

In a large bowl, mix together the wheat germ, oats, milk powder,

coconut, cinnamon, and orange rind (if desired).

Pour about one cup of the carob syrup over the dry mixture, or as

much as is needed to make a pliable, dough-like consistency. Store the

remainder in the refrigerator and use as an icing or to make great milk

shakes.

Pinch off pieces of the dough and roll each piece between your palms

into 2-inch-long tubes about the circumference of a fountain pen,

tapered at one end in the shape of a baseball bat. Roll the rest

into marble-sized balls.

Apple Smiles

1 Red medium apple; cored & sliced about 1/3" wide, not skinned!

Peanut butter (creamy works best)

Tiny marshmallows.

Spread one side of each apple slice with peanut butter. Place three or

four tiny marshmallows on top of the peanut butter on one apple slice.

Top with another apple slice, peanut butter side down.

Squeeze gently. Eat right away..makes 8-10

Bunny Salad

1 Chilled pear half

2 Raisins

1 Red cinnamon candy

2 Blanched almonds

-cottage cheese ball

Place crisp lettuce leaf on plate. On top of it, place pear upside down.

Make bunny, using narrow end for face. Two raisins for the eyes, 1 red

cinnamon candy for the nose and 2 blanched almonds for the ears. The

cottage cheese ball makes the tail.

Butterfly Bites

2 Stalks of celery

12 lg Three-ring pretzels

6 tb Peanut butter or cream cheese

About 18 raisins or currents

12 Slivered almonds or enoki mushrooms

Wash the celery. Using plastic knives, cut the celery into thirds. Fill

each celery stalk with one tablespoon of either peanut butter or cream

cheese. For the wings, gently push 1 pretzel into the filling, running

parallel to the length of the celery stick. Do the same on the celery's

other lengthwise side. Arrange the raisins or currents as the eyes,

nose and mouth. For antennae, push the slivered almonds or

mushroom cap into filling. If using mushrooms, arrange the spaghetti-

like mushroom tips upward, like an antenna.

Cat's Eyes

1/2 c Peanut butter

8 Ritz crackers

1 Banana; cut into 8 slices

8 Raisins

Spread peanut butter on crackers and top each with a slice of banana.

Place a raisin in center of each banana to form a cat's eye and repeat

for all banana topped crackers.

Chocolate Spiders version #1

4 cups semisweet chocolate baking chips

Melt chocolate chips in top of double boiler. Let stand over the water

until water is cool, about 10 minutes. Place wax paper on cookie sheet.

Pour chocolate into a pastry bag that is fitted with a 1/8-inch or 1/4-

inch tip. Squeeze chocolate onto wax paper in the shape of spiders. If

chocolate is runny it needs to be cooled longer. Chill the spiders for

about 10 minutes. When hard peel off wax paper. Store in refrigerator

laid flat.

Chocolate Spiders version #2

12 oz Twizzlers; chocolate flavor

4 oz Milk chocolate candy melts

Cut twizzlers into 1 1/2" pieces. Slice each piece in half lengthwise. On

waxed paper place 4 legs (pieces) on each side and then drop 1 tsp

melted candy in middle for body. Use a toothpick to smooth to uniform

circle and connect all candy pieces. Cool completely before removing

from waxed paper.

Clown Faces

Large Pancake

3 x Orange Slices

2 x Poached or fried Eggs

1/2 Cherry Tomato

Make the pancakes in advance and set them in oven to keep them

warm. Poach or fry the eggs. To assemble the faces, place the

pancakes on a plate, with eggs for eyes, orange slices for ears and

mouth, and a tomato half for the nose.

NOTE: For a lighter meal, omit the eggs and use apricot or peach

halves for eyes and half a fresh cherry for a nose. Or, omit pancakes,

assemble eggs directly on plate, and add a smile made from chopped,

sauted potatoes.

Daisy Apple

2 Tbs. raisins

2 Tbs. crunchy or creamy peanut butter

1 Mcintosh apple

Peanuts, for garnish (omit if making for small child)

Set aside a few raisins for face. Stir remaining raisins into peanut

butter. With apple corer or paring knife, remove core and seeds from

apple. Using a small knife, push peanut butter mixture into center of

apple. Make a happy face on top of peanut butter using reserved

raisins. Arrange peanut halves around edge of peanut butter forming a

circle. Chill before serving.

1 -2 minutes. Crush Oreos and set aside. Let stand 5 minutes. Stir in

cool whip and half of cookies. To assemble: place 1 Tb crushed cookies

in bottom of 8 oz cup. Fill cups about 3/4 full with pudding mixture.

Easter Mints Kids Can Make

1/3 c Soft butter

1/3 c Light corn syrup

1/2 ts Salt

1 ts Flavoring

3 1/2 c ( 1 lb ) sifted confectioner's sugar

Large bowl

Wooden spoon

Paper plates

Pencils

This is a no-cook recipe the children can mix with their hands. Flavor it

with any of the liquid flavorings in the supermarket, such as

strawberry and lemon. If you want, you can instead divide it into three

portions and add a few drops of food coloring to tint it yellow, red, and

green. The knead a small amount of flavoring into each one. This

recipe makes about 1 1/2 lbs of candy.

Help the children measure all the ingredients into the large bowl. They

can take turns stirring it with the wooden spoon until it becomes too

stiff. Then they can knead it with their hands. They should continue

kneading until the dough is smooth.

Give each child a paper plate and a pencil. Tell them to turn their

plates OVER and write their names on the Bottom to prevent pencil

lead from getting on their mints. Help them hold their pencils correctly.

Make sure they use upper and lower case letters.

Give each child a portion of dough on his or her plate. The children can

pinch off pieces, roll them into balls, and press them lightly with a fork

to make a fancy butter mint. Children who cannot roll the candy into

balls can make snakes, cut the snakes into pieces, and press the

pieces with a fork. They might eat the pieces with the fork, but that's

ok too. Leave the mints on the plates and refrigerate them for 30

minutes, until they become firm. Easter Mints taste even better the

second day, if you can keep everyone from eating them all on the first

day. Cover with plastic wrap and keep them in the refrigerator.

Eyeballs on Ritz

Eggs; hard boiled

Black olives

Ritz crackers

Red food coloring

Cut hard boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Remove yolks and make filling

for deviled eggs. Cut out small hole from bottom center of each egg

(about 5/8" diameter.) Poke a black olive partway through each hole

and hold in place by filling eggs with yolk filling. Place each egg, olive

side up, on a ritz cracker. Paint red lines, resembling blood veins, with

a toothpick on the eye.

Fish in the River

2 Celery stalks

1/4 c Cream cheese; or other cheese spread (tinted green if desired)

8 Goldfish crackers

Trim and wash celery and fill with cheese. Top with crackers and serve.

Food for a Hobo Hike

4 cn Tuna (3 oz each)

4 cn Baked beans (6 oz each)

4 Oranges

4 Plastic

4 Bandana clots

4 Children

Place 1 can tuna, 1 can beans, 1 orange, and 1 fork on each

banadana. Bring up corners and tie securely. Tie end to children's belt

loop or attach to a stick and send them off on their hobo hike.

Pack another hobo pouch for yourself and go along. Make sure

someone has a Scout knife with a can opener attachment to open cans

(much more fun struggling with one of these things than to

take a conventional can opener). The oranges serve as both a drink

and a dessert. Poke a hole in one end and after all the juice has been

sucked out, open it and eat the flesh. The tuna and beans, of course,

are eaten just as they come from the can. The bandanas serve as little

tablecloths, napkins, and kerchiefs to be worn back home. Children

love this hobo picnic--it's easy for you, nutritious, filling, and fun from

them.

Funny Face Carrot Salad

2 carrots

1 small can crushed pineapple

1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

Raisins

Peel carrots. Roll up a few long shavings and save them for "hair" on a

final salad. Grate carrots with a grater. Be careful of your fingers.

Drain can of crushed pineapples in a strainer, using a spoon to push

out the juice. Toss pineapple with carrots, then add vanilla yogurt.

Spoon some salad onto a plate. Make a smiling face with raisins. Style

carrot "hair", and serve with a smile.

Jello Aquarium Recipe

1 pk Jello Berry BLUE jelly powder

1 c Boiling water

2 c Ice cubes

Gummy fish

Dissolve jelly powder in boiling water. Add ice cubes, stirring until jelly

thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove any unmelted ice. Spoon jelly

into to clear sided bowls. Poke 3 or 4 gummy fish into each dish of
