Ghost Sticks
from: Preschool Rock By Linette GerlachGhost Sticks are great fun to make with your preschooler. They're a new twist on the chocolate covered pretzel. They're fairly simple, and you can munch them as soon as you make them, or use them to add a touch of fun to any Halloween display. Check out the other ideas section below for more ways your preschooler can help you use these Ghost Sticks for Halloween fun and giving.
Ingredients
Pretzel Sticks
White Chocolate Bark (or white melting chocolate)
Chocolate Sprinkles
Mini Chocolate Chips
Optional: Cellophane and ribbon for decorating
Directions
Step 1:
Melt the white chocolate or white chocolate bar in a bowl in the microwave, or on the stove with a double boiler. Follow the instructions on the chocolate package for best results. If you are using a double boiler be extremely cautious with your preschooler around the boiler. An adult should do the melting and dipping portion of the project.
Step 2:
Dip the pretzel into the melted chocolate, and lay on aluminum foil, or wax paper to cool.
Step 3:
While the chocolate is still soft let your preschooler help you insert two chocolate sprinkles for eyes, and a mini chocolate chip for a mouth.
