Firstly the kids are on half term...what on earth are we going to do ? Especially if it's as damp and grey as it is today.
Secondly it is Halloween and the Trick Or Treaters will be out in force!
This year I am going to spend the day baking cakes with the kids as I figure this will cover all bases!
- My children will have a great time, they love having a day baking cakes and decorating them.
- We are all feeling the 'pinch' at the moment, this will happily and cheaply occupy them for a day of the holidays. It is also cheaper and a healthier alternative to loads of sweets.
- Without even knowing it they are learning at the same time: measuring, weighing, using the timer etc.
We love this recipe http://www.netmums.com/family-food/recipes/a-z-of-family-recipes/fairy-cakes but there are loads more available online, have fun trying a few out to find your favourite.
Have Fun!!!
