Here is what you need to make Put Me In the Zoo Mix:
- Waffle Pretzels
- Wilton chocolate candy melts in various colors…I used red, blue, green, yellow and purple
Place eight waffle pretzels on a microwave safe plate.
Add a Wilton chocolate red candy melt to the middle of each pretzel.
Microwave for 45 seconds or until the candy melts begins to soften.
Repeat steps 1-3 for each color candy melt.
Let the candy pretzels cool off for five minutes before enjoying.
This a great book and edible activity to do with your children on National Read Across America Day on March 2nd (also Dr. Seuss’ birthday!).
The book has a lot of rhyming and sight words making it an ideal book for early readers. The Put Me In The Zoo Mix will make a fun finale when your child has finished reading it.
