Cream Cheese Fruit Dip

Updated: Dec 26, 2024


I believe there is no better way to teach children to eat healthy foods than to involve them in meal and snack preparation. Given the option, many children will often choose fruit over junk food when it is readily made available to them. This Cream Cheese Fruit Dip is a commonly made accompaniment to fruit of all kinds, and it can help make fruit even more enticing to youngsters. Make it even more fun by choosing different colored fruit for different occasions – the recipe below was made around St. Patrick’s Day so green was the color chosen.


Young children would not be able to manage the cutting involved, but most would be able to assemble the fruit on party picks or skewers. Learning new skills and mastering kitchen tasks can be a big self-esteem builder for children… and few children can refuse to try something they have helped to prepare.
