Sometimes, to get kids to eat, you need to get creative. And, if you need to put little faces on hot dogs and put them in a bun canoe, so be it. Kellie Strickland, a North Carolina-based mother of three, does just that and a lot more.

The ongoing series includes said hot dog canoe, a porcupine taco, and an awesome turtle waffle. Those and more can all be seen at Strickland’s site, Little Nummies.
