It's spring! Can you believe it? It's finally here! I know I'm not the only mama who's been anxiously awaiting winter's end... and my kiddos are even more ready for spring than I am! That's why I've been toiling away trying to come up with fun ways to make it feel like springtime at home for them even if the temps haven't quite caught on that winter's over. Haha! All that cold weather can make even the calmest of children, which wouldn't accurately describe mine (bwah!), go stir crazy. Am I right? Keeping them busy is in everyone's best interests. So, I'm going to share an easy edible flower garden craft that will most definitely do that!

On that note, let's talk about this easy edible flower garden craft that anyone, and I mean anyone, can do! I know there's that old-age rule that kids shouldn't play with their food, but you can kick that rule to the curb today. With this DIY they get to be creative AND then eat what their little imaginations conjure up! You can't beat being able to serve up a tasty good time complete with crafts AND snacks!
