Quite awhile ago I got inspiration for this dinner activity from Pinterest, but only brought it into fruition recently. The premise is very simple: take spaghetti poke it through hot dogs, boil, eat. Not the healthiest dinner but definitely including ingredients my kids like (plus playing with your food is pretty fun). I did it from memory and realized after I did that it helps to cut up the hot dogs and poke the noodles through one way, not every-which-way. That did make for difficult holding and boiling, but we figured it out!
Pretty fun! Though they had a lot of fun making them, I think my kids may prefer to enjoy their dogs and noodles separately. Or just more chances to get used to the noodledog idea…

Ha ha, hilarious! I’m pretty sure I’ve pinned that idea, too. Naively, I didn’t think what they would actually taste like.
Lauren, they actually tasted fine, its just that my kids were weirded out by mixing food (as usual). They pulled the spaghetti off and ate them separately, and that was fine!
I found you because I wsas looking for posts on weaning..my 23 month old nurses A LOT
