After my husband and I get our little one nestled in bed each night, we usually have a time frame of about an hour to get to watch something on TV other than Paw Patrol or some other animated kids show. During those golden moments before our eyes close with the exhaustion of parenthood, we typically tune into one of our favorite shows that airs on the Discovery Channel.
Earlier this week, I finally saw a promo ad for Shark Week, and it totally sparked the idea for this roundup of jaw-fully sweet shark inspired treats! Discovery Channel announced that Shark Week will kick off on Sunday, July 22nd with special programming featuring those ferociously FINtastic creatures. By the way, here’s a countdown for you if you’re a mega fan and can’t wait for the fun to begin!
Honestly, I don’t get too involved in the hype of Shark Week. I’ve seen my fair share of sharks swimming super close to the shore, and they really freak me out. BUT! I do know that a lot of people are fascinated and excited by them, which is why shark week always gets a lot of hype during the summer months. I even know a few people that throw watch parties to catch up on programming specials during shark week! Besides, if someone is whipping up some of these shark-inspired snacks, I can totally get down with tuning in to Shark Week! 😉
