Painting Toast - How to Cook with Toddlers?

Kids love helping in the kitchen, even at a very young age. Start them out
with a fun cooking project designed to mix snack time with art. They'll love
eating the results of this project, and you'll love how quick and easy it is
to set up and clean up.
You need:

Milk (or water, soymilk, other liquid)

Food-safe paintbrushes

Food coloring (any type is fine)

Small cups or ramekins

Bread

Cookie cutters

Do this:
To make the paint: mix a tablespoon of milk with food coloring to achieve
desired shade. For maximum ease in mixing and cleanup, we poured milk in a
little cup, squeezed food coloring onto a paint brush and mixed it right in
with the brush. If you¹re concerned about your toddler spilling this milk
paint, use yogurt or pudding as paint instead.
Cut out bread with cookie cutter (or leave uncut and just paint slices of
bread ­ that could be fun for school lunch sandwich messages). Paint bread
with brush and prepared paint.
Toast in toaster. Serve as desired. We smeared cream cheese for Nemo¹s
stripes on this example.

Hold Your Own Olympic Games

One way to get your kids interested in the Olympic Games is to host your own
family Olympic Games event. Have your kids design their teams flag and come
up with names. Every Olympics has a mascot, perhaps a teddy bear or favorite
doll. Hold an opening ceremonies. Here are some ideas for games:

Paper plane folding and throwing
Obstacle course
Discus (using paper plates)
Sock slide (if you have hardwood floors)
Throw the bean bag
Simple gymnastic display

Of course no Olympics Games can be complete without awarding medals and
closing ceremonies. Print out medals. Everyone is a winner!
