Why Writers & Magic Spelling Wands


Why Writers &  Magic Spelling Wands

What You'll Need:

  • a variety of fresh fruit, cut into small, bite-size chunks:
    • banana, sliced into rounds
    • apple, cubed
    • grapes
    • strawberries, sliced lengthwise
    • pineapple, cubed
    • blueberries
    • starfruit (if you can find it)
  • ice cream sticks
  • orange juice

Directions:

  1. Cut up all the fruit and arrange in separate bowls.
  2. Sprinkle a bit of orange juice over the top of the fruit, to prevent it from turning brown.
  3. On a separate plate, arrange the ice cream sticks.
  4. Have each child choose an ice cream stick and slide the fruit of their choice onto the ice cream stick, making whatever pattern they choose.
  5. If possible, children who are making a Magic Spelling Wand can top their skewer with a starfruit slice.
