Lumpy's conjunctivitis was better today (completely gone or she wouldn't be preparing food!) and she was able to go to daycare... UNTIL she dropped Harley's ceramic bowl on her foot and now has a bruised and horrible toe!
SO, what can we do to keep entertained today? I decided we could do some easy baking today, I made muffins and Lumpy made us some bread (with the breadmakers help).

She was so proud of herself for helping, She takes tasks very very seriously. She is often asking if she can help. What's a little mess when a little one is learning?
Lumpy is still having her nap... BUT I sampled it shhh, its sooooo yummy!
Again proof having fun with and teaching your child new thinsg does not have to cost you the earth :)
Enjoy the time with our kids - once these little years are gone they will never come back.
great post mara :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post Mara! Even very little kids can do so much cooking and baking with pre-measured ingredients. And of course with baking there is the bonus of licking the bowl & spoon :)
