A few months ago I made some veggie trains for a video for Thomas & Friends! They're fun for any occasion, whether it's a train-themed birthday party treat to a playdate craft activity or an afterschool snack. As I usually work with candy it was so nice to have some healthy "craft materials" to share with my boys when they poked their heads into the kitchen to see what I was doing!
*IMPORTANT* In these photos I attached the wheels with toothpicks but in the video, I "glued" them on with cream cheese. Toothpicks are fine if the trains are for decorations only but if you're giving them to a child to eat, leave off the toothpicks.

Veggies taste better when they're shaped like trains!

Watch the video to see how they're made!

The "smoke" coming out of the carrot and pepper locomotive is a sprig of rosemary! The center cargo train is filled with some yummy dip and sprinkled with a little paprika.
I hope you'll give these a try!
