Ingredient Notes
Here are some notes of ingredients. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.
- Vegetables- Baby carrots, sugar snap peas and cucumbers are some popular choices and the perfect size for those little hands.
- Protein- This board has Mickey shaped PB&J and hidden Mickey salami roses.
- Healthy grains- Whole wheat sandwiches and fun cinnamon alphabet cookies are a good source of energy.
- Fruit- I like to use a variety of fresh berries for color. For some vitamin C, I added tiny butterfly mandarin oranges.
- Dairy- Cheese is loaded with vitamins and minerals, especially calcium. I used star shaped cookie cutters for my Colby Jack and turned some mini Babybel into ladybugs.
- Sweet and Savory Dips- Kids will be more inclined to eat their veggies if they can dip them into something flavorful. Nutella and ranch are great options.
- Desserts- I added Easter M&M's into some Chex Mix for a little sweet treat.

Step By Step Instructions
STEP 1. First, grab a board or platter. Any board will work. Cutting boards and serving trays are great options. It doesn't need to be fancy or expensive. Just make sure it has a flat surface.
STEP 2. Start with your dips and spreads. I use small ramekins and small ceramic bowls. Space them out and place them in different corners of the board.
STEP 3. Place larger items down first. I add the PB&J and Mickey roses first and begin to fill in the spaces with the other items afterwards.

STEP 4. Arrange the fruit. Because berries and fruit are so good with Nutella, I place them next to this bowl. Also, it helps the kiddos know that these two items go together.
STEP 5. Add the vegetables. I love the flared look of all the vegetables and adding them to the outer edge of the board really makes a great presentation.
STEP 6. Fill in any gaps. Once the majority of the ingredients have been added to the board, I begin to fill in the empty space with the remaining ingredients. Make sure not to add the cookies until you are ready to serve so they remain crunchy.
STEP 7. Decorate. To give this board it's spring look, I decorate mini Babybel cheese as ladybugs with black olives and cut mandarin oranges into tiny little butterflies.

Expert Tips
- Make it colorful. We all know that we eat with our eyes first. By adding an array of colorful fruits and vegetables to your board, it will definitely draw your kids attention.
- Empty out your pantry and refrigerator. Making a charcuterie board does not have to be expensive. First, look and see what you have on hand or can use up.
- Use dips, spreads and jams. This helps elevate all those delicious fruits and veggies on the board. It's also a great way to expose your kids to new flavors.
- Add some texture. Crackers, breadsticks and nuts are great options.
