Joseph's Coat Snack

Introduction

Everybody loves a good snack! This colorful Joseph's coat snack is perfect for a Bible lesson at home with your child because it is healthy. Most of the time, snacks for Joseph's coat involve candy, cookies, and icing. Don't get us wrong, we love a good Joseph's coat cookie, but that might not be best for one's diet if you do that often. This alternative though can be done multiple times with your kid when you want to review the story of Joseph. It can be made with vegetables and ranch dressing or fruit and yogurt . Have fun with it and be creative with your children. Who knows, they may even try some foods they don't usually eat!
