So my oldest DD has her second Brownie meeting tomorrow. In haste to make sure that I got my volunteering time out of the way early, I said I would be the parent volunteer for the meeting. The problem, you ask......

I need to bring snack...preferably something healthy as they meet at 5 PM and I do not want to spoil dinner. Also...I was hoping to avoid paper products. Oh and it has to be super cute cause that is just how I roll....

What do y'all think? Ideas?

TIA~

Just make sure none of them have a peanut allergy!:D
 
Go to familyfun.com for some cute snack ideas with a Halloween theme. One was ritz crackers with peanut butter; have pretzels sticking out for legs and raisins on top for eyes - a spider.
