Lucky Charms + Green Milk: Making a holiday magical doesn’t have to be complicated. Buy a box of Lucky Charms cereal and serve them with milk that’s been tinted green with food coloring. Boom.
Rainbow Waffles: If you love going above and beyond, make these rainbow waffles! They’re not complicated, but will definitely take some extra prep.
Shamrock Pancakes: Use food coloring to dye the pancake batter green, and shape them with a heart-shaped cookie cutter. Arrange them on a plate in the shape of a shamrock (see photo above)!

Rainbow Mini Pancakes: Dye pancake batter different colors, and arrange your pancakes in the ROYGBIV pattern on a plate! Takes a little extra prep dishes, but easier than the rainbow waffle.
Rainbow Cloud Donuts: Soooo easy! Buy powdered mini donuts and make a rainbow between them using Froot Loops cereal and a pipe cleaner.
Rainbow Treat Jar: A canning jar, chocolate coins, mini marshmallows, and Skittles are all you need for this cute little treat.
Pancakes and Rainbow: Don’t feel like coloring your pancakes? No worries. Make two stacks of mini pancakes, put a dollop of whipped cream on each of them, and put a strip of rainbow striped candy (like Airheads) to span the gap like a rainbow.
No-Bake Cake Balls: Make these super simple (and delicious) cake balls, dye the insides green with food coloring, and decorate them with green sprinkles!
Edible Rainbow Math Game: Do you have littles? This craft + math game + snack is a great (and yummy) activity!
Rainbow Snack Board: Pinterest is full of ideas for this! Make it as healthy or indulgent as you want. Make a rainbow with fruits and veggies, or include candy and marshmallows to make it extra fun.
