Here is my muffin tin for todays Circus Theme. Mondays have been such a busy day for us that I hardly have time to create my muffin tins.
For those of you who do not know how to make their own food picks here is how:
I printed out some free circus clip art that I found online (if you would like this clip art please let me know since I do have the combined cliparts saved).
Materials: printed clip art and 1 toothpick , colored pick, or bamboo skewer.
Make two holes, one at the top and one at the bottom.
Then pierce your toothpick/skewer into the top and out at the bottom…
There ya go, quick and easy.
To fit into our circus theme I then printed out a Circus clown activity page from here. (That website is great, there are a lot of activity pages although I had just found it today so I haven’t seen them all yet)
Since my son doesnt know how to color in the lines yet I just filled in the colors on the comp and cut them out for him. (hey, fun for me too!!)
Here is how I presented the activity:
Here is our finished activity
I cant wait to see what everyone else created for their Muffin Tin Monday Circus theme!
What a great clown face. Thanks for the pick instructions I will have to try that.
I love the crafts to go with the meal. I can't wait to do stuff like that with my little one! Great idea for the picks, too.
I like the toothpick tutorial! This for future MTM.
I love his clown face. Good way to spruce up plain ole toothpicks!
That make-your-own picks idea is terrific! I think we'll be using that one a lot… š
Great activity. I printed a clown coloring sheet today!
Fun! Super cute!
LOVE the clown face! What a fun idea!
I really like the clown face activity. Why didn't I think of that? It's perfect!
congrats on being featured on one pretty thing!
and I love your picks!! they are so cute!
I struggle with Mondays to, always so much to do. But i love your tooth picks!!!
Wow! I'm super impressed with your muffin tin idea of simply adding some picks to jazz up the food a bit. I also love the clown feet liners…I had thought maybe I could do that, but then realized that meant I would have to go buy them, so that took care of that idea. š
What great fun to add a "build your own clown face" to the MTM theme! Thanks for sharing all of your fun ideas!
Oh that is so funny! I made my own pics this time and posted about how to do it as well. lol I used stickers though. š
I love the silly feetmuffin cups! very cute tin!

Those toothpicks are so cute! Great MTM meal! š
I keep "meaning" to make the food picks … so very cute. Maybe now I will! Great tin!
