Aiden made a nice Halloween Ornament! We got this at Christmas Tree Shops for a dollar. Not bad for a little activity. I can see this may be what we make for some Christmas Presents! When it dries I'll hang it in the window. I had fun making this collage using a kit from another blog http://sinfullycreativescraps.blogspot.com so we both had craft time :)

Chocolate Chip Cookies
Today's Aiden activity is making Chocolate Chip Cookies! Yum! Aiden had fun pouring the ingredients in and most of it was hand over hand but some wasn't and I am learning cooking with kids is messy but it sure is fun!
This is the recipe we use (we didn't use nuts today and used milk chocolate chips)
enjoying his hard work! |
This is the recipe we use (we didn't use nuts today and used milk chocolate chips)
Ingredients:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees(190C) and grease some cookie sheets. Cream the butter, then gradually add the two sugars, beating until light and smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda together and add it to the first mixture, blending well. Stir in the nuts and the chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the cookie sheets about 1 inch apart and bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. About 50 cookies.Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies: Use 1/2 cup uncooked oatmeal instead of the chopped nuts
What is your favorite cookie to make at home?

Connections and Connect Four
Aiden is learning how to play toys and enjoying them more. Connect 4 has been in hiding for a year about because of the small pieces. But Ricky is having overtime at work I thought we could try this activity together. Aiden did really well he stayed focused and filled them all up. And I really think he is starting to get the matching part of this game. Check out the pics!
What board games do you like to play with your kids?

He didn't eat it but hey he made supper tonight that's really cool! Yay Aiden.
