Gift Idea

My mom gave each grandchild this for Christmas:

You can buy the book and cat at Barnes and Nobel. What you won't get is the darling little cupcake attached to the cat. My mom made the cupcakes and sewed them on. Clever.

Making Cookies

Making cookies with kids can sometimes be stressful. I found that if you prepare before they even enter the kitchen it can be an enjoyable and fun experience. I measure out each ingredient and put them into individual bowls. Then the kids can take turns adding the ingredients and everyone is happy.
