Trail Mixes

Need a simple snack that doubles as a musical instrument?  Trail Mix is the answer!

Trail mix is easy to make, totally customizable, makes a great shaker (just put it in a takeout container!), and the best part? Everyone in the family, no matter how small, can help make it!

We asked our Facebook page for some suggestions, and here's a handful of the tasty answers:

Thow it all in a bag and let your child shake, shake, shake to mix it up. :) You can also add animal crackers, cheeze its, pretzel goldfish, raisins, or any thing your heart desires. :)
