Fall Programs for Teens (8): Food Ideas

I know Summer Reading is starting to wind down. But my head is filled with ideas for fall programs. Fall for my library runs from September thru December. This is my first fall for teen programs at the library, so I'll be doing a mix of old ideas that worked well and new ideas.

Monster Rice Krispies Treats

If you are looking for party or preschool Halloween snacks, this freakishly easy Halloween recipe will have your guests screaming for more. It features crunchy mini twist pretzels that have been dunked in melted dark chocolate (add a little vegetable oil to the chocolate for smoothness) and topped with candy eyeballs. Allow to set for 30 minutes. Open wide!:

Spring Programs: Food

It sure feels like Spring now in New England, but I'm sure that will change soon. It's nice to imagine that we might just sail through winter without huge snowstorms and move right into Spring. Or maybe it's just fun to imagine Spring programs. So I thought I'd attempt to help and toss out a few ideas for fall - all from pinterest

Also, take a look at last year's Valentine Programs or Mint programs for St. Patrick's Day ideas. Plus last year's Spring Flower program ideas.
This year's Butterfly ideas or Garden programs or Flowers

Lemon Muddy Buddies

Fruit Tacos

nutter butter sandal cookies -- someone needs to make these for me (ha):

Flip Flip Sandal Cookies

Jelly Bean Bracelets

Fun, easy and delicious! Dip into the holidays one cookie at a time! This recipe is the perfect activity for your kids to join in. Easily make them with Pillsbury sugar cookie dough – simply roll it out into a rectangle, cut with a pizza slicer, bake and dip into frosting with a candy coating.:
