Increase amounts to fit your needs:

Strawberry Fruit Leather

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh strawberry puree
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup applesauce
1/4 cup sugar

Prep:
Combine pureed berries and applesauce with lemon juice and sugar.
Line a 10x15 in jelly roll pan with plastic wrap. Pour fruit into pan and spread evenly.
Bake about 5 hours at 200F or until leather pulls away from wrap. Flip leather onto counter, peel away plastic and remove any mixture that has not "set." Cut into slices and wrap each in plastic.

Answer 3

A "strawberry ice cream social". Slice the strawberries up and sprinkle on a little sugar, set them aside. Put a scoop of ice cream in a bowl and top with a scoop of strawberries, I bet you the kids would LOVE it. (I've never met a child that said no to ice cream)

Answer 4

put the strawberries on wooden skewers and have a few dips: Yogurt, chocolate, whipped cream....
There's that pre-made fruit dip that they sell in the store. I forget the brand, but it's in the section where all the produce is. It's refrigerated. It's a white chocolate dip. VERY good.

Answer 5

The best thing you could do for her is to enroll her in a daycare or pre-kindergarten program. You can teach her all of the information as best you can, but without her learning the social aspects of kindergarten, she cannot be properly prepared.

Answer 6

Make smoothies! Cap, toss in a blender w/ some yogurt, maybe some frozen peaches, and some ice, and blend well. Pour into small plastic cups. Some kids will get it, some won't. They'll love it, esp. when you whip it up in the classroom!

Answer 7

Strawberry shortcake, and let them put on the spray can type of whipped cream themselves.

Answer 8

slice them up, add some sugar. refridgerate.overnight(they will make their own juice) take shortcakes (or angel food cake slices).put on plate, top with berries and cool whip.

Answer 9

since it's a year end celebration, dip them in chocolate! Kids will love them, and they don't require utensils to eat them!

Answer 10

Please make sure before you serve the strawberries there is not a child that is allergic to them.
