I keep bananas on hand at all times, which means there are often a few extra-ripe stragglers that get turned into banana bread. It's always exciting to have fresh baking about, but this time I felt like such a kid because I was really excited to eat this little bear with my coffee after I took the picture. There's just something extra delicious about circles of banana bread with no crust...:)  This simple bear made out of circles can make a fun breakfast or bento surprise in your child's lunchbox. Or, make a bear together during a food play snack time. I made all circles with cookie cutters and straws, so it's a simple activity with no knives.Enjoy and happy food play! :)
