You can use the same recipe, but instead of using the chocolate cream cookies use the vanilla or even lemon cream cookies. Instead of "dirt" you will have "sand". And instead of serving in a flower pot use a clean (new) child's sand bucket and sand shovel. This is especially good for a beach themed party or a pool party. For decorations use beach balls, beach umbrellas, sea shells, etc.
