Pretend Food

DIY Pretend Food/Donuts

So I love buying pretend food for dramatic play! 

My son LOVES to pretend he's cooking us up food, EVERYDAY. 

So I started thinking,

 I probably could make some of this myself too! 

I plan on making a few different foods for the next couple of weeks. 

Thinking this will make a great gift for the holidays! 

So here's my first venture into the pretend food realm.

Mini wooden donuts :)

First, I bought some wooden wheels. 

Get whatever size donuts you want! I was going for mini (I love anything tiny)

Then I whipped out my paints in whatever colors I thought I might use.

I wanted some cute packaging for them and when I saw these gift card holders I knew they would be perfect. They held six of my mini donuts perfectly!!! 

Here they are painted and in the card holder.

Yup, I'm in love with these. Hope everyone's ready to see these in their stockings this year. 

I figured the adults could tie a ribbon on them and hang them on their Christmas trees.

 I just picture little boys and girls having these at their little pretend tea parties. 

These are the perfect size for stocking stuffers.

The kids can take them anywhere since they're small!

Just wrap it up and it's ready to be gifted and played with =)

Sooooo happy with these! 

(Again, cause I love anything tiny)

And the best part is how EASY these were to make! 

I can't stand the cuteness!!!!!

Since they're in pairs they can match them up, they can talk about how smooth they are, and the shape they are as well. =)

Wonder what my next food item will be???

And no batteries needed here, woohoo

Say No to Batteries =)
