One of my favorite snack recipes for children!
Put the powdered sugar in a large brown paper bag. Pour cereal mixture into the bag and shake to coat with sugar. Pour onto a baking sheet to cool.
In a large bowl, measure out 4 cups of old-fashioned oatmeal. Pour the liquid over the oatmeal, stir until well-mixed and bake at 275 degrees for 60 minutes.
Pour mixture into the baking pan, using the back of the spoon to spread evenly. Cool for 30 minutes. Cut into bars and wrap individually in plastic wrap. For extra thick bars, use a 9-inch square baking pan.
In large bowl, measure cereal. Butter a 13x9-inch pan. In a large sauce pan, cook 5 cups marshmallows, the chocolate chips, corn syrup and butter over low heat, stirring occasionally until mixture is melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla. Pour hot mixture over cereal; quickly toss until completely coated. Stir in the cup of optional marshmallows, if desired. Use a buttered back of a spoon to press mixture evenly in pan. Let stand uncovered at least 1 hour.
Directions: 2. Roll out the crescent roll dough onto a 9x13 inch baking sheet, and pinch together edges to form the pizza crust. 3. Bake crust for 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Once finished cooking, remove crust from oven and let cool 15 minutes without removing it from the baking sheet. 4. In a small mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, and dry Ranch dressing. Spread the mixture over the cooled crust. Arrange broccoli, cauliflower, shredded carrots, and Cheddar cheese over the cream cheese layer. Chill for one hour, slice and serve.
This is a super simple version of the well-known fruit pizza.
Combine cream cheese and marshmallow creme. Spread on the cooled crust. Top with desired fruits.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in small bowl. In large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla. Gradually combine the two mixtures. Stir in oatmeal and chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes for chewy cookies or 9 to 10 minutes for crispy cookies.
In a medium bowl, pour in both gelatin powders. Heat the apple juice in the microwave just before boiling. Pour the juice in with the gelatin power and mix well with a whisk. Pour into a 8" x 8" pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Cool in the refrigerator for at least three hours. Use fun shaped cookie cutters to cut out and serve the jigglers.
The mini-wiches in the photo are ham and cheese, but you can use PB&J or any other filling the kids would like. Make a sandwich and cut it into fun shapes with play-dough cutters.

Jigglers are a fun snack to make. The kids love them and it's a way to work on colors and shapes without the kids knowing that they're learning!
Tiny little sandwiches that the kids gobble up just because of the fun shape I make them in. (And maybe the fact that I cut off the crust!)
