PKK: Ants on a Log

Once upon a time there was a little girl named Princess Kaitlyn. She lived in a beautiful castle by an enchanted forest, a magical lake, and a fantastically fun playground. One day as Princess Kaitlyn frolicked by the magical lake, she came across a family of ants carrying food back to their nest. Princess Kaitlyn bent down to watch the ants when one approached her. Antzy the ant was very friendly to Princess Kaitlyn and invited her into the ant nest below the sand.

Princess Kaitlyn laughed and said she was too big to go down below to the nest. Antzy told Princess Kaitlyn that he could fix that with a zipity zapity zoo and POOF Princess Kaitlyn was the size of an ant. She crawled into the ant nest and found an awesome maze of rooms built of dirt, sand, and muds. Flowers and seeds decorated the rooms to liven and cheer things up inside. It was like a miniature underground castle. Princess Kaitlyn enjoyed a tasty meal of sunflower seeds and hibiscus flowers petals with the ants before returning to her actual size and heading back to the castle.

In celebration of meeting the ants, Princess Kaitlyn made ants on a log when she returned home.

Ingredients
  • Celery sticks (cut by mommy)
  • Peanut butter
  • Raisins
