Candy Carrot Garden
Pin this now to save it for later
Pin It NowSupplies:
- Chocolate carrots (like these)
- Orange Reese’s Pieces
Directions:
- Have your kids pick out just the orange Reese’s Pieces. These are the chocolate carrot “seeds”
- Place them around the garden.
- Gently press the “seeds” down about 1/2 inch or so (not too far down)
- When the kids aren’t looking, replace the seeds with chocolate carrots (discard the seeds)
- Push the carrots down so all you see are their green tops
- If you have time, slowly pull the carrots up so that each time the kids look, they can see that the garden is starting to grow!
- Once the chocolate carrots are all done growing, pick them!
So that the candies stay edible, it’s best to grow the garden quickly. We grew ours in a few hours:) Dust off the dirt and unwrap the chocolate inside. Or, just save them for fun. It’s up to you!
