4. Rainbow Pudding

Here’s another yummy snack idea that will definitely impress the little ones. This “Rainbow Pudding” is really just vanilla- but the added magic of food coloring makes for a very festive treat. This recipe calls for pudding made from scratch, but we promise we won’t tell if you make it from a box.
