THE CO-OP PANTRY B Y M A RY D E L P H
August is upon us. Hopefully, the kids will be heading back to school sometime this month, and this may be one time they really want to get back to their friends and out of the house. We thought maybe some snacks that they can make themselves or with just a bit of adult supervision would be fun and give them something they can do for themselves. Reminder: If cutting and slicing is involved or cooking on a stove, adult supervision is a must! - Mary
