    What started out as a fun summer snack, ended up also being a great creative activity! I showed the kids how to stack the grapes on the sticks and then set them loose. Within minutes there were grape people with sticks coming out all over the place, Pokemon grapes, alien and robot grapes, grapes arresting other grapes. It was crazy! They are now headed to the deep freeze and will make a great snack later on!
