Princess Charlotte's Tea Sandwiches
Who doesn’t love all things fancy? Sometimes it’s just the little things that make childhood memorable! Like our tea party sandwiches with adorable little Princess Charlotte as our muse. This is a super quick lunch activity to do with your little one. The sky’s the limit with sandwich toppings but we chose three pretty choices: strawberry cream cheese, classic cucumber and cream cheese and carrots. This is a fun (and messy) play date activity. We love the idea of the kiddos using cookie cutters to make these sandwiches creative and improving their fine motor skills and executive functioning at the same time.
We went traditional English version with our choice of white bread but totally support substituting something healthier like whole wheat bread or a yummy honey nut choice.
