Butterfly sandwiches are great fun to make with children. They can create their own using peanut butter, jam, raisins, carrots, celery, grapes. The possibilities are endless and they’re so much fun to eat. While you’re making the sandwiches you can make up poems or songs about butterflies. I’ve included one that my grandchildren and I made up.
Butterfly
Butterfly, oh butterfly
Dancing across the sky.
Butterfly, oh butterfly.
First you are low then you are high. E. Naccarato
These are almost too cute to eat! Thanks for Sharing 🙂
This is a great idea that my grandkids will love. And the carrot, peanut butter and raisin one is very nutritious! I was trying to think of poems and songs about butterflies in case our creative juices aren’t flowing, but the only one I could think of was “Elusive Butterfly.” I Googled it and found that it has been covered by an interesting variety of artists, from Dolly Parton to Johnny Mathis to Cher. The Johnny Mathis is the best, but on YouTube you can find the Dolly Parton version with the lyrics, great for teaching the grandkids!
