Recently I asked a friend request. She - the mother of two children and asked her to tell the recipes that are easy to prepare, together with her baby.
I thought, and in fact at one time and I will have a child, and I also have to sit with the child and teach him to cook. And I can not even imagine how a child can help me in the kitchen, that he can be trusted, and that it is better to do it yourself.
To deal with this problem, I turned to my friend Anna, who already have a child, so she really needs to know. Together with her, we were 5 desserts, in which your children can help you.
By the way, if you are interested in the topic of motherhood, how to be a mother on maternity leave, Anya just write about it - subscribe to her channel «Maternity leave».
1 Tiramisu
Children will love to dip biscuits in coffee and beautifully spread in the form of transparent layers of this dessert.
You can even ask to grate chocolate for decoration.
2 Shortbread
On sale is a lot of interesting shapes for cutting out cookies. Triangles, squares, stars and hearts - the children love it. In addition, cookies can not only cut, but also to mold. Modeling develops fine motor skills. But I do not advise to sculpt intricate large pieces, they will be hard propech. It is best to something flat.
3 Cake potatoes
Knead the dough by hand for this cake, and a cake mold can even toddlers. Remember how happy you are in childhood sculpted from bread crumb.
4 Sweet sausage
When my mother told me as a child, we will prepare a chocolate sausage, it led me into raptures. I'd love to help my mother cookie crumbles into pieces and loved to lick the spoon that stirred the chocolate mass.
5 House of biscuits and boiled condensed milk
As a child, my brothers and I were collected from cookies houses. As the "cement" performed boiled condensed milk. Each gathered as he wanted. I usually do a two-story house.
This house could stand just before the evening, to show to his parents, and then ate it all together for a cup of tea.
Now you know what sweet you can cook with your children. But, in addition to involvement in the process, you prepare children for adult life, and develop a variety of skills.
Here is what my friend Anya channel «Maternity leave»:
✔ Cooking is creative work that develops creativity.
✔ In the process of preparation is required to count the number of ingredients that develops mathematical abilities of the child.
✔ The child is important that he can do as adults. This helps him to realize its significance.
And what do you cook with your kids in the kitchen and how old they are, tell us about it in the comments.
