Crispy Snowmen

Once again my husband is subbing in our church's children's class (primary valiant 8-9) and as a matter of survival, he needs an awesome treat.  Something that will wow them and keep them in line long enough to get through a lesson.  I know, we shouldn't bribe them but let goodness be it's own reward, blah, blah blah, but when you are a substitute teacher you do what you got to do. He will set these guys on the table through the whole lesson.....no explanation, but those kids aren't dumb.  They will quickly figure out that they will only get one at the end IF they are good!

Rice crispy squares stuck on a stick and dipped in white chocolate.  I made a mold for the top hats and used dark chocolate so the hats would be nice and close to black.

Candy eyes, orange tic tac noses and dark chocolate piped mouths.  Then I used fruit rolls to make the scarves.  These snowmen are huge and sure to give the kids a big rush of sugar.....after they leave church.  Diana

    I don't think there's anything wrong with bribery in a Sunday school class or any class.
    I think he should hold them up at the beginning, describe how delicious they will be, and let the children know that whoever is listening and paying attention will be rewarded with one of these yummy treats. It's called 'leverage' in our church...now I'm rambling, I think I'll make some of those for my grandchildren, they're quite cute. Thanks for sharing. Kathi

    Haha...I love it. Bribe the kids. Hey, I was a substitute teacher in the public school system when I was in college, and if that would have worked, I'd have tried it! :) These guys are just adorable! I'd be really good too if it meant I could have one. Thanks for linking to Shine On Fridays! :)
