Pioneer Log Cabin

For Pioneer Day, create your own log cabin in miniature, complete with pretzel logs, cracker shingles, and peanut-butter mortar. This easy project is great for kids; while they construct the cabin, you can teach them about the founders of our great state.
- Rinse a 1/2-pint milk carton, and cover the surface with creamy peanut butter. Fill in the top of the carton with extra peanut butter to straighten the slope of the roof.
- For the logs, cut pretzel sticks to desired length with scissors. Use peanut butter to affix them to the sides of the milk carton.
- Make the door with a graham cracker, and use peanut butter to give it a pretzel-scrap doorknob. Use pretzel or cereal squares as windows.
- Shingle the roof with two layers of thin wheat crackers, line the top roof ridge with a pretzel stick, and add a pretzel nugget as a chimney.
