Hi Crafty Friends,
Table of Contents
Winter break is here, and this mama always has her eyes peeled for fun, holiday activities that the kids can do with low, to no parental supervision. I love giving my kids all the tools that they need to be creative and then letting them go to it! That’s exactly what we are going to do with today’s recipe.
Depending on the age of your kids and their kitchen abilities you have three options:
- Older kid- Let them do this project start to finish, all on their own.
- Middle aged kids- Help with the oven, and but let them put the cookies on the cookie sheet, and decorate themselves.
- Younger kids- Make the cookies ahead of time. Let them decorate the cookies with a bit of parental supervision.
