Magic reindeer food

Serves:

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup porridge oats
• 1 tsp edible red glitter
• 1 tsp edible green glitter

Method

Mix oats and glitter in a small bowl until combined.

Spoon into a snack-size resealable bag and seal carefully.

Print our sheet of FREE Magic reindeer food labels, cut out one label and attach to bag of oats and glitter using a stapler.

On Christmas Eve, sprinkle Magic reindeer food outside while reciting the special poem printed on the label.

Snuggle down in bed and listen out for sleigh bells!

Serving Suggestions

Note

• Be sure to use edible glitter (the sort that you can decorate cakes with) as craft glitter can be harmful to wildlife.
• If you prefer, add bird seed and small diced carrots to the oats instead of the edible glitter.
• If Christmas Eve is damp, sprinkle your Magic reindeer food on grass, not a pathway or paved area as the rain could turn your glittery oat mix into porridge!
