Every kid will love these asteroid treats made from their favorite cereal. Start by melting three tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan. Add one package of marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Add one box of your favorite cereal (we used Trix®). Once the mix is cooled, shape into three inch balls. These make the perfect space themed treats!
Serve up these delicious moon snacks to teach about craters and ridges of the lunar surface! Spread peanut butter, cream cheese or jelly onto plain rice cakes.
