you can write " we hope the bigsun doesn't melt us!" (as in bigsun and seresh-purim story), and you can do a summer/winter theme. You can put in cupcakes with a sun on it, sunkist-candies, sunmaid orangejuice or sunmaid candies...enjoy!

You can put three marshmallows together on a pretzel stick and decorate it with choc. Chips and put a packet of hot chocolate in there too. Maybe a scarf out of licorice string?

maybe a snowman "kit". it can include carrots for nose. Black candies (checker gummies?) for eyes and mouth. A bottle of water + an ice pack for do it yourself snow.

if you want it to look nicer,you could make rum balls, roll them in coconut and stack them on top of each other. you can put a toothpick to help them stay together. then put it on a plate with coconut sprinkled on it (to make it look like snow), you can use colored choc chips for the eyes and buttons and a carrot for the nose.

I did it last year. It came out adoreable. (I think) I did a clear container with a dome like cover. I did mini marshmallows at bottom of mm, I put pics of my kids in a photo snow globe. I put in: baby carrots in white mesh bag (it should look pretty), I made snow flake cookies out of frosted corn flakes, and some white taffy with clear wrapping with a little bottle of water. We all got dressed up like snowman including my husband and I. A

Cute theme. so appropriate this year!
Did you consider some kind of pop corn balls, putting three together, etc.?

Bina Bunch had very cute snowman idea. White marshmallows on skewer , -pretzel stick arms, choc chip eyes. Nose is a candy coated licorice. Hat was jelly ring with small gum drop placed in centre with toothpick
Scarf is a sour stick wrapped around. More choc chips for buttons.
They placed this marshmallow snowman into cup cake with skewer. They then squirted whipped topping over cup cake. (If skewer is too long then cut it). Suppose white frosting sprinkled with shredded coconut would also be OK.
