Our Sunday Night Activity!

On sunday night the kids wanted something to do, so as a family we decided to have dessert, but this time Jaxson and Bryce wanted to help. I looked in the kitchen to see what I could find that they could help with and I had a package of Nestle cookies that were ready to put on the cookie sheet and bake and that was perfect for Jaxson. We set a stool at the counter and he got up and was able to set the dough on a cookie sheet. He thought that was the funnest thing to do with mom. Dad and Bryce watched as we did that then Bryce decided that is what he wanted to do as well. So we let him. He wanted to eat the dough more than place them onto the cookie sheet, but he thought he was a big boy and could do what Jaxson was doing. Sometimes you have to step back and let them do it their way and that is not the easiest thing to do but I let them do it their way. It was a fun ending to our weekend, we might have to start making this a Sunday night activity that they can look forward to.

How fun! And what a fun dessert to make as a family! Baking with Carolyn is one of my most favorite things to do (and she likes it, too)...it will be fun when Angela can join in like Bryce. It was good talking to you today :)

Looks fun! I love how you said, sometimes you need to let them do it their. That is so true and your right it is hard. :)
