The holiday’s can be a magical time for little kids. As a parent, it is just as fun to create special activities throughout the holiday season to add a little whimsy to everyday things. A great example of this is a very special breakfast recipe that we stumbled upon and wanted to share with you.

Ingredients:
- 1 package of ready-made cinnamon rolls
- stick pretzels
- dried cranberries

- red fruit roll-ups, cut into strips or red licorice strips
- green candies
Make the cinnamon rolls according to the package. Let cool slightly. Use the pretzels to make reindeer antlers. The cranberries make a great reindeer nose and the raisins are perfect for ears. Use the fruit roll ups to make a smiley face or festive scarf. You can use the enclosed frosting to make sure everything sticks. While the kids are decorating you can make the fruit salad.
