Since our 2013 post, people have mentioned to me, not to use glitter in your reindeer food. The glitter could be harmful to the environment. I'm leaving the original pictures in this tutorial, up in the post for an example but the supply list has been updated :)

I didn't put exact amounts in the supply list because it's honestly up to you {and your child} on how much you want to make/mix together.

Most recipes I found online said 1 cup of dry oatmeal. That is about how much we used.

Then I eye-balled the sprinkles and glitter. If you do more or less, or don't do sprinkles - it's really not going to mess up the fun of it. It's the overall concept of it!!!

As for the directions - those are fairly simple. Just combine all your ingredients into one bowl. {My son did a scoop of this & that - a sprinkle of glitter etc. He really got into "baking" the food} Once your reindeer food is mixed, pour into a bag and save for Christmas Eve.
