Sponsored Post – playing and learning with Oddities

Modified: May 10, 2023 · Published: Oct 1, 2012 by Emma Vanstone · This post may contain affiliate links · 7 Comments

It’s not often as a child, you get given a pack of yummy snacks and get told to make a picture or letter with them. Usually, I ask my children to sit at the table with a plate and to be as tidy as possible. Not that they listen to me, of course. 

First, we looked at what we had to work with. Oddities come in different shapes, which gave us lots of inspiration for making pictures.

 My children are big fans of snacks, so first, we had to try some. Z liked the bacon flavour best, while S and H favoured the cheese.

Then we created some pictures.

 

Little H made the letter H, and Z made a volcano.

Mostly though, they just wanted to eat them.

This is a sponsored post.

    Very good take on the normal sponsored post. I hadn’t thought of making pictures out of these types of biscuits before, we normally buy them at Christmas time and I’ll be sure to this with The Boy.
