DIY Gold Medal Snack Containers

*
It’s safe to say Olympic fever has hit our home. Starting with our Family Fun: Backyard Water Balloon Baseball and 5 Healthy Rio Summer Games Inspired Snacks, we now bring you these adorable Gold Medal Snack Containers. These containers were a lot of fun for the kids!

Before you start, I want to mention a couple of things about these snack containers. First, they aren’t very strong. Light snacks like trail mix, dry cereal, popcorn, etc will do best in them. Second, they won’t last more than a few uses. The best uses for these are fun for your kids or as party favors.

5. Once dry, put a ring of glue around the outside of the container, but inside of the baking cup about midway. Lightly press the baking cup sides against the glue on the cup and hold in place until it holds itself. Let dry completely.

[…] The 2016 summer games in Rio will kick off in less than a month and the fever has hit our home! Watching the games together as a family has become a tradition I welcome. It’s the one time our usual “electronic time” rules don’t apply and we soak up as much together time in front of the TV as possible. There are countless benefits to watching the games as a family and just as many to recreating the sports together in the backyard. In fact, that’s just what we did. A quick trip to Meijer had everything we needed to re-create baseball in our family’s own unique way. We had so.much.fun!!! We later put our summer games creativity to the test in the kitchen. Check out our 5 Healthy Summer Games Inspired Snacks, here and our DIY Gold Medal Snack Containers, here. […]
