Tips
for cooking with kids:
At the Store
Ask the kids to help you pick out the fruit for the recipes.
They'll not only be more interested in the cooking process,
they'll be more likely to eat what you prepare.
Kids love color, so have them choose some bright paper napkins
for the brunch.
In the Kitchen
Cut the oranges and tangerines in half and have the kids help
squeeze the juice out—they'll love it! Things may get
a little messy, but that's part of the fun. A kid-sized apron
or smock will help keep them a bit cleaner.
After you've made the French toast, ask the kids to add the
magic touch by sprinkling on some powdered sugar.
Get the kids to spray the pans for the Breakfast Bread. They
can also add the carob chips to the batter.
At
the Table
Encourage the kids to make a homemade Mother's Day card and
place it on the guest of honor's plate. They can use glitter
glue, leftover ribbon and even fresh flowers to dress it up.
Ask the kids to pick out a pretty pitcher and glasses for
the smoothie. Mom will be so impressed
