    Disclosure: This video and blog post was commissioned by Warner Bros. and Tots100 in support of the cinema release of the movie Smallfoot.  I was compensated for my time and the cost of ingredients, however all opinions expressed in this post are my own.

     

    Today I've got a super-easy no-bake coconut bites recipe to share with you, and best of all, it's yeti themed!

    Inspired by brand new film Smallfoot, these cute little edible yetis taste delicious and are sure to be a hit with the kids - why not get them involved with making their own too?

    Smallfoot is an animated adventure for all ages, with an all-star cast and original music. The story turns a traditional myth upside down when a bright young yeti finds something he thought didn’t exist—a human! News of this 'smallfoot' throws the simple yeti community into an uproar over what else might be out there in the big world beyond their snowy village.

      These look super cute! And no-bake is always a bonus :-). I'll try this recipe with my two little ones during half term.
