Carrot Patch Snack

This is a cute, healthy snack to send to school for the annual Easter Party. 
Ingredients:
Hummus, Ranch Dip or other thick dip
Baby Carrots
Parsley
Clear, 3 oz. plastic cups 
Small terra cotta pots (need to be big enough to hold cups)

Instructions
For each patch, spoon about 3 tablespoons of dip into plastic cups. Place four baby carrots for each cup and use a toothpick to poke a hole in the top of each one. Insert a sprig of parsley into each hole. Then "plant" the carrots in the dip. Place the cups in mini terra-cotta pots. 
Optional: Provide a pack of carrot seeds so that the students can take the pots home and start their own carrot patch.
