Cut two circles from a slice of white cheese (we used white American) and place over the radish teeth and carrot whiskers.
Cut a triangle from the radish and press into cream cheese above the cheese cheeks. (See photo.)
Break a pretzel stick in half and press side by side into the cream cheese for one of the ears. Repeat for the other side.
Break off the tip of a pretzel stick and push into cream cheese for one of the eyes.

Repeat for other eye. (See photo.)
Tips:
Whole wheat crackers are better for you than those made with bleach flour.
Experiment with other vegetables, or try with fruits and a sweetened cream cheese dip or peanut butter.
When children help make their food they are more likely to eat it!
