Preparation

1. Put the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil. Boil the eggs for 3 minutes, uncovered. Cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let it sit for 8 minutes. Remove the eggs from the pan. Cool them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Peel the eggs.
2. Chop eight of the eggs into small pieces. Place the chopped eggs in a large bowl. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, green onion, and paprika. Mix together. Spread the egg salad on the slices of bread.

Eyes

Add eyes. Slice the remaining egg. Place two egg slices on the first bread slice. Place two radish slices on the second bread slice. Place two cucumber slices on the last bread slice. Put olive slices on top of egg and cucumber slices. Cut two slices of green bean. Put one on top of each radish slice.

Nose and Mouth

Add noses. Put a pickle on the first bread slice. Put half of a cherry tomato on the second bread slice. Cut a slice of carrot for the nose on the third bread slice.

Add mouths. Use a green bean on the first bread slice. Use slices of green and red pepper on the second and third bread slices.

Hair

Add hair. Use mixed salad greens on the first bread slice. Cut a carrot into short slices and place them on the second bread slice. Use a peeler to peel long, thin strips of carrot. Use it for hair on the third bread slice.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with replacement ingredients for eyes, nose, mouth and hair so that once kids eat the green pepper mouth, for example, they can replace it with a red pepper mouth, then a green bean mouth, etc.
