3 Super Simple Red, White and Blue Fruit Treats

When our family comes together to celebrate Memorial Day or Independence Day, I think it’s important to think about the reason we are celebrating. One way to do that is to serve patriotic colored treats to the kids and talk about the reasons we’re thankful for the freedoms we have in the U.S.
My kids love special treats and making them out of just fruit makes me feel good about giving them.
So, for the kids eating pleasure, here are 3 simple fruit treats:
