Pickle Boats


I love how that sounds “pickle boats”.

We made them for snack, as well as orange boats,
but that doesn’t sound as funky.
Here’s the recipe -

Building the snack gave us an opportunity to talk about the different parts of the boat;
hull, mast and sail.

It was much easier to insert the pretzel into the orange than the dill pickle.
I used processed sliced cheese cut into little triangles and they stuck easily to the pretzel.

More children chose oranges over pickles but they all enjoyed the cheese and pretzels.
