Baking with Children by The Goddard School E.A.B

Baking with Children

• Put on aprons. The mess is part of the fun;
• Older children can crack the eggs and measure wet and dry ingredients, while younger children can participate by pouring the pre-measured ingredients into the mixing bowl;
• Show children that oil and water don’t mix by letting them stir the mix;
• Create cut-outs with cookies cutters;

• Be sure to encourage creativity and imagination when decorating your creations. Use festively colored frostings, sparkly sanding sugars, gumdrops, pre-cut fondant or homespun shapes. These are perfect for little fingers and make wonderful cookie decorations;
• Don’t forget to taste test your creations;
• Go with your children to deliver a plate of cookies to a neighbor or the local senior center. Giving and sharing can make children feel good.
