All the children here today helped to make some shortbread stars. They all thought they were yummy too!

Shortbread Stars

Today we did a bit of cooking. We made some cakes and everyone helped. We tried colouring different parts of the cake mixture to make multi-coloured cakes. At lunch time the cakes proved particullarly popular.

 

We decorated some biscuits today. We used chocolate sauce, cake decorations, sprinkles and chocolate chips. All the children loved it but I think they enjoyed eating the biscuits most.

Today at our childminders group we made bread for the harvest festival. They each got to play with it for a while like play dough before we put it in the oven to bake it. They all had a great time and couldn’t wait to show their mums and dads.

Today was the first day of school for one of the boys so all of my children made a lovely chocolate cake. They did all of the mixing and stirring and by the end the kitchen was white with flour. It gave the whole proceedings a very christmasy feel because it looked like snow.

We iced the cake with “Well Done”. Everyone enjoyed the cake and the children involved got to take some home to their parents.

Today the children decorated gingerbread men. They ate more than they put on the biscuit’s however they had great fun doing it. Once finished they couldn’t wait to eat them.
