Cracker Castle

Adrien
 had an opportunity to earn extra credit points for completing a castle project. They are reading "The Castle in the Attic" at school. We researched different ways of creating a castle on google and Adre decided he wanted to do something different, that no one else would do. So he built a cracker castle; built upon the premise that peanut butter is a perfect substitute for mortar, that is if Saltines happen to be the bricks! hehehe
 He used Salines, Ritz, Club, and Oyster crackers, all glued together with peanut butter. He topped each tower with a cookie, small donut and Kiss. He decorated the roof with gumdrops and a couple Lego guards. Lex even got in on the creativity by drawing some crocodiles in the moat.
 Then Adre decided to have a little FuN with his project and added a scene from Tangled! He had the prince climbing Rapunzel's hair and even added her green lizard on the window seal!
 Adrien sure is one creative little guy
And the best part is that the entire class got to eat his creation
