There's nothing kids love more than eating with their hands. Unfortunately for moms, that often means more postmeal cleaning. Put some fun into their food — without the mess — by utilizing a simple skewer. From the first meal of the day to the final sweet bite, there are plenty of ways to whip up filling and flavorful food on a stick. The best part about these tasty and easy bites: no utensils to clean after!
