We love fruit art and I thought it would be cute to make this Peachy Parrot Fruit Snack in hopes my boys would eat peaches. My boys have only liked peaches with ice cream in the past and never have wanted to eat them by themselves. This snack changed their minds! They absolutely loved it and said that their new favorite fruit is now a peach!
Peach Fruit Art For Kids
We live in Georgia which is the Peach State and we are almost at the end of our peach season. I have heard recently that Georgia has produced more blueberries in the last couple of years than peaches though. I doubt that will change our Peach State status but it was an interesting to hear. We have too many “Peach” streets and “peach” names so I am sure they wouldn’t want to change those to blueberry lane, etc…!

Brilliant idea. Mother always said don;t play with your food….but she didn't mean this sort of play!
haha – this is hilarious! and what an incredible neighbor to bring you such amazing local fruit! if you ask me, that's how we should be feeding each other – freely, seasonally, locally, and happily.
