How is preschool over for the year? It just flew by! But, it was time to say our good-byes to our teachers and friends until next year. Such a nice group of kids and parents (and you all know how much I love the teachers...just read the previous posts).
Since it was a picnic, I again, took a cue from Sweet Sugarbelle to create this platter, pretty much straight off her blog. Hopefully I did her proud.
I had all the cookie cutters I needed, including the bumble bee, but I love that she used a balloon-shaped cookie cutter to make the lady bugs...
so clever!
She goes through the tutorial for these little guys on her blog, but she
cautioned that using a food-color marker for the bumble bee was
crucial. Of course, I'm a rule-follower and do as I'm told, so I had no
trouble with these guys.
I almost added some eyes, but then I didn't want to mess with a good thing.
I think the flowers and rain-kissed leaves really added to the platter, especially by lightening up the color palette.
They were a big hit at the picnic.
And, of course, the teachers had their own little plate to enjoy or take home...they certainly deserve it!
What a great first year of preschool!
Thanks for everything, and see you in the fall!
