Ingredients
- 1 potato
- 3-5 sliced veggies of choice
- markers any colors
- 3-5 toothpicks
Instructions
- Create your potato people's face: Â Use toothpicks to secure veggie facial features to our potatoes. We used onion slices as hair, a slice of red pepper as the mouth, 2 pieces of frozen corn for the eyes (thaw them in the microwave first), and bigger mushroom chunks for ears.Â
- Accessorize! Use markers to draw in any leftover features. For example, we drew a nose and added eyelashes to the corn eyes. You can even draw a bow tie or necklace on your potato people.Â
- Add arms and legs. As a final touch, add toothpick arms and legs. You can even stick on chopped pieces of red pepper or mushroom as hands and feet.
Notes
- We recommend Curious Chef Kid-Friendly Knives if kids want to do the chopping!Â
- Adults can cut toothpicks in half ahead of time if they are too large.
- Snack on veggies while crafting! Consider preparing some extra sliced veggies for kids to sample as they craft.
