Penguin Sandwich:

  • Cut around the edges of a piece of bread in the shape of a oval using kitchen scissors.

  • We decorated with provolone cheese, raisins, & a carrot….

Grape Penguins:

  • Use dark grapes filled with fruit dip for the mini penguins.
  • Use oranges for the feet & orange sprinkles for the beak.

    This is too cute! Love it!
    I've made penguins a few ways, including using cream cheese and olives, but I haven't made all of these. Thank you – you've given me some new ideas for my penguin-obsessed kiddo!
