It's Playtime: Edible Stars

Stars.  Edible stars.  Yummy, edible stars.  Just in time for summer and American Independence Day.  Check it out on this weeks It's Playtime!

Along the lines of Glitter Grapes, check out these tasty Flavored Watermelon Stars from JDaniel4's Mom.  

Come Together Kids shared this guest post from JDaniel4's Mom for Red, white, and Blue Frozen Smoothie Stars.  

I know, 4th of July Pudding Pop's are not stars, but I'm pregnant, and they look yummy, so check them out from We-Made-That.com.
