Christmas tree salad

Overview

On Christmas day, I made a Christmas tree for my baby to suit the occasion. The 2-year-old baby has no idea what Christmas is. To satisfy the baby, he often asks what is it? What is that? Why? Waiting for the curiosity, the mother must regard the kitchen as the best classroom, make a Christmas tree for the baby with her own hands and explain what Christmas is. The moment I brought the Christmas tree in front of her, the baby’s curious eyes and the funny look of eating with his little hands are still unforgettable to my mother. From then on, the baby understands that there will be a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, Christmas gifts, and snowmen waiting for him on Christmas Day. . . I often tell my mother that I want to go to Antarctica, where there are penguins and Santa Claus (a scene from a storybook). Now whenever the mother asks the baby what she wants to eat, she will say she wants to eat a Christmas tree. In fact, this Christmas tree can not only stimulate the baby's interest in eating, bring nutritious snacks to the baby, but also educate and entertain. Best of both worlds.
