Cute, Easy and Fun DIY Easter Treats

by

We love to make treats to give out in my son’s class for pretty much any holiday, and I wanted to share this super cute idea I found for Easter treats.  It is a little play on s’mores, use two graham crackers, 1 tiny chocolate bar, and a marshmallow peep, wrap them up in plastic and you are done.  To make it even more cute write a note from your child and include it inside.  Enjoy!  For another fun Easter treat idea click here.
