Blue Foods List

1. Blueberry Skewers.

Blueberry on skewers helps to keep little fingers out of your fruit bowl. You can even spring for blue toothpicks!

2. Blue corn chips with queso

Grab a bag of blue corn chips and pair it with queso. You can whip up some non-spicey queso by combining 1 slice of white American cheese to every 2oz of heavy cream. Warm slowly adding the cheese one slice at a time.

3. White chocolate covered treats with blue sprinkles

Dip pretzels in white chocolate and then decorate them with blue sprinkles.

4. Blue cream cheese and crackers

Color your cream cheese with gel dye, so that it doesn’t change the consistency. A little goes a long way!

5. Blue vanilla yogurt

I used a bit of natural food dye to color some vanilla yogurt.

6. Blue Lemonade

Whip up some blue lemonade by combining blue fruit punch, lemonade, and sprite.

Tips for making primary colors square art.

• For younger children, you can pre-cut the squares so they only have to focus on the art project itself.
• Older children may be able to hold down the square while pulling the colors. Younger children will benefit from a little roll of painter’s tape.
• When cutting out your squares use thicker paper. This will help them keep their shape.
• You can use the paper squares multiple times.
• There are lots of smudging tools you can pick from. Cotton swabs, cotton balls, makeup pads, or even fingers. (this is messier, but fun)

Grab our simple color and shape dice for another fun way to learn.
