Discovery Channel is wrapping up their Shark Week and my boys have been talking sharks non stop! My 7 year old thought we could make a shark out of fruit and we came up with this Shark Attack Snack. They thought this was just the coolest snack ever!

    I saw this on Pinterest a while ago, and we made our own on Friday. Our girls loved it! We had to improvise a little on the eye, and were missing the candy fish (and let me tell you, they were pretty disappointed, because it was their favorite part of the picture!), but other than that it was a total success! Thanks for sharing and inspiring! I've loved looking exploring your blog!
