March Madness is underway, and basketball is on the mind of many families. Here are some fun ideas to celebrate March Madness with your kids!
1. Serve a (Mostly) Healthy Basketball Snack!
I love to make snacks that are both healthy AND fun. I started by trying to make this orange basketball using only fruit (well, half a peeled orange with fruit leather lines)—fail! The fruit leather did not stay on, and it just didn't look right. Then I thought of that classic orange-chocolate combo, and decided to use chocolate syrup to make the lines—win! Still mostly healthy, fruit with just a tiny bit of sweet. In my mind, a nice alternative to a cupcake or cookie.
