These "adventures" started as we were getting ready for our last trip to Disney World. For our two younger children, I wanted a way to make our visit to EPCOT a little more memorable. For those of you who have never been to EPCOT, the park is divided into two sections: Future World and World Showcase. The World Showcase is basically like touring 11 countries in one swoop. Disney has done an amazing job of making you feel like you are actually visiting each of the countries with their attention to detail, as only Disney can. However, for little ones, this area can be a little less exciting and attention grabbing than say the Magic Kingdom. :) So in the weeks leading up to our trip, we "visited" a different country each week to get the kids familiar with what we would be seeing at EPCOT. I would cook a meal that was inspired by the country as we watched a Disney movie that took place in that particular country. The kids apparently enjoyed this so much that when they were listing off things to do this summer, this was a must do!
So here we are. . . in FRANCE.
Our dinner included Croque Monsieur (ham and cheese sandwiches), french green beans and french fries (of course). As you can see, the film chosen was Ratatouille.
You most certainly cannot "visit" France without dessert! So we made chocolate croissants. I just used the refrigerated croissants. Add a little dollop of Nutella before you roll them. Bake them according to the directions on the package and VOILA! The kids barely waited for these to cool before gobbling them up!
Now to decide where to go next . . .
