Face painting done in creative shapes and designs is a nice alternative to wearing a mask on Halloween night (masks can be very frightening to preschoolers and they obscure vision when a child is walking up and down steps or when crossing the street).
In addition to using face paint to complete a Halloween costume, kids will enjoy this recipe for birthday parties, staging a backyard play and for dress-up on a rainy day.
On two plates, start with the hard-cooked egg, sliced lengthwise for the face.
Next, slice the tomato in half and add to the plate.
Shred the carrot and arrange around the face of the egg for hair.
Arrange the lettuces for the skirt.
Take 3 cloves for the eyes and nose and 3 for the other plate.
Slice the celery sticks and arrange for the arms and legs.
Dab mayo for buttons on the tomato.
Under the skirt (lettuce leaf) add a cup of potato salad, macaroni salad or yogurt.
Enjoy.
