He's growing up fast my eldest boy! I've been doing a fair bit of baking lately, and this time he wanted to know what mummy was doing. The familiar call of "Jack too!" as I wandered into the kitchen swayed me. "Come on then," I sighed with a smile and pulled up the foot stool so he could reach the counter top.
He dusted my baking sheets with flour - loving the clouds he made when he clapped his hands. He had a go at using the rolling pin too. But the best bit was cutting out the shapes!
I let him choose which shapes we were going to have. I'd made enough dough for 3 dozen cookies so there was plenty to play with. He chose the boy, girl and teddy bear cutters for the first batch. Fior the rest he wanted stars (I have 3 styles of star and he likes sets of things). He did really well at cutting the shapes too. We don't have any play-doh or plastercine for him so he's not cut shapes before. He did great. Although he did eat rather a lot of raw dough....
Goes without saying I suppose! :oD
