Columbus Day is celebrated the second Monday in October across the United States.
Teach the kiddos about why we celebrate Columbus Day with this easy snack! Take one apple and slice to make the bases of each ship. Next, slice a stick of celery to make the pole for the sail. Finally, add a sail by using a cracker (I used Wheat Thins) and add a little sun made of cheese.
To create the waves as well as the names on the ships, use the following method with some yogurt:
Variations:
Use cheese for the sails (those square slices of cheese would work great)
Use little sandwich cut-outs for the boats
Make the pole out of a carrot stick
Use your imagination!
