cookies and bunnies

YUM!

First they decorated their table...then the cookies. They were Yummy!

These are a bit backwards....but here are the bunnie baskets. I usually don't do projects that the kids can't do mostly by themselves, but I found this on one of the sites and thought the kids would really enjoy carrying them around AND...I happened to have 10 milk cartons waiting for the perfect project. The kids picked out all the colors of the items that they wanted and Korina and I hot glued them on. To give it their own little touch I let them 'decorate' with colored sharpies! The did really enjoy playing with them!!

Campbell who is 2 was filling hers up with little people. cute.
Addy decorated just about every little space she could find :)


Even the bottom :)


I can't remember where the bunny idea came from...probably from one of you gals who might read this. If so, speak up! Sorry....I run through so many great ideas!!

Egg Cracking....

Every year we buy dozens of eggs and we crack them. If you are one that doesn't like kids playing with food....close your eyes. The kids love this and remember it. How often do you cook and your kids want to crack the eggs?? Now they know how, sort of. The pictures tell the rest...
We have 2 rules. Keep your hands away from your face and keep the eggs in the bowl...

EGGS...

I do this activity every year and the kids just love it. Yeah, it's a little wasteful, but way worth the sensory exploration that the kids get to have. Even my 3 boys 16, 13, and 10 love to crack eggs. My 13 year old is figuring out how to empty the egg with the shell staying whole. So he can crack it on his brothers heads of course.

Each paper has 1 bowl, 2 sets of 15 eggs and 2 kids. There are 2 rules...#1 Do NOT put your hands near your mouth. #2 Keep the eggs IN the bowl. Okay guys...Break some eggs!Look how clean it looks....

Go Quinn Go....These 2 had a hard time keeping it in the bowl...These 2 ended up being the cleanest out of all the groups...Anna was the last to leave her bowl....And Surprise!....Quinn won the messiest award!! But, he kept his hands away from his face. Good Job Quinn.
