Christmas Tree Snack

Lately, I've been trying to get my kids to eat different types of food.  It has been quite a struggle with my 2-year old who refuses to eat any type of vegetable.  How do kids know which foods are vegetables and which are not?  But my daughter isn't too picky so I decided to try this snack the other day.  It has fruit, vegetables and cheese!

I used cheddar cheese and a star cookie cutter, snap peas, and Craisins.  My daughter gobbled it all up.  My son picked the Craisins off, ate the cheese and would not touch the snap peas.  I had high hopes that maybe disguising them as a tree would help.  It did not.  Nonetheless, it is a healthy and festive snack perfect for the preschool crowd.
