Veggies Galore Clock Face: Daylight Savings Activity & Snack

With the coming of spring, we can look forward to God making veggies galore across the northern hemisphere. Here’s a chance to applaud God’s springtime powers in resurrecting vegetation for another bounty in this Daylight Savings themed snack.

Materials

Baby carrots, 15 or 20

Celery Stalks, 4

Small Cherry tomatoes, 15 or 20

Cucumbers, 2

Squash, 1

Ranch Dressing

Raisins, 1 box

Large round serving dish

Paper plates for students

Serving spoon

Instructions

1. Cut the celery stalks into inch-long pieces

2. Cut cucumbers into ¼” circles, approximately, and the same with the squash

3. On a large round serving plate, start in the center, placing a mound of raisins.

4. Around the raisins, form a small ring form a ring of baby carrots.

5. Around the carrots, form a small ring of cherry tomatoes

6. Around the tomatoes combine cucumbers with squash and make a ring, placing two cucumber circles down for every squash circle

7. Sprinkle the top with Raisins.

8. Line up celery pieces to form straight “hands” of a clock, perhaps making nine o’clock. For the two pieces closest to the outside, you can cut one end in a little “V,” such that they appear to have pointed hands. Remember to make a long minute hand and a short hour hand.

9. Either create zigzag lines of Ranch dressing across the top or put a dab on each child’s plate who wants to dip!

10. Serve your veggie platter onto paper plates, letting students help themselves or decide on their veggie choices while you serve.
