Notes

This is a great way to use up lingering fruit.
Let the kids pick the fruit they want on their sticks or assemble the sticks for them. We've done rainbows, alternating colors, or sticks with just one type of fruit!
I like paper lollipop sticks since they aren't sharp. Look for them near the cupcake supplies in a crafts or big-box store. They come in a few lengths and any work.
If you have leftover fruit, place into an airtight container and store in the fridge to make more sticks later!
