Milk and Cookies
This semester's Kindermusik Our Time unit, Milk and Cookies, has inspired Weston and me to make some cookies of our own. He loves to "measure and pour" and "stir it up", just like in the Cookies book. These are some pictures of Weston cooking with Nanny this summer making Chocolate Chip cookies. This week he and I made some No Bake Oat Fudge Cookies, which we thoroughly enjoyed eating too!
Baking with a toddler is definitely a different process, but I encourage you to give it a try. We have a lot of fun. The key is keeping it simple and quick! There is so much to be learned from a simple cooking project-- math skills, eye-hand coordination, and cooperation to name a few. Plus, you get to eat the results! Learning doesn't get any better than that.
