Emoji Apples and other fun ideas to get kids into better options.

My son always comes home from school ready for a snack, he always has. When it comes to refreshing sips, he's always ready for something tasty.

That boy can drink too, let me tell you. I was the same way when I was his age and beyond. Yummy drinks first and snack second.

The best part is these bevys come in easy to grab containers. Perfect for grabbing on the go after school or in lunchboxes.

To get some fresh ideas on how to get kids more active the fun way, check out LetsPlay.com. I found an idea to use shaving cream on a game of Twister and thought it was crazy genius. Messy, active fun... can sometimes be better than "good, clean fun". 😉

How to Make Emoji Apples

Making cute little emoticon faces on apples is a breeze, the kids can even help for a fun activity. All you need are some apples, green are best or you won't be able to see the drawings.

Use food grade markers that are safe and specifically made for writing on food only. There are a few brands available. Easy Writer Food Decorator brand can usually be found right in the baking section in the grocery store. I found mine right next to cake and cupcake decorations. You can also find other brands in craft specialty stores that have a baking section.

Clean the apples first, the waxiness can make it a challenge to write on since the food grade markers are different than regular ones. They are more like a watercolor paint.

Then, have at it. Let your creativity soar. Happy snacking!

My son is addicted to Mott's Apple Juice. It is his go-to drink for everything. I wish I could get him to eat fresh apples, though. Maybe if I try your emoji trick he'll give one a try.
