With the kids off school and still a few days until Christmas you may well be wanting some projects to keep them entertained. Christmas-related sweet treats are the way to go in my personal opinion, mainly because I’d enjoy eating them later! There are countless ideas on the internet but I’ve rounded up a few to give you an idea. I’m sure the kids would love making these (with your help - especially with the popcorn garland) and I’m sure they’ll love eating them too. As will you ;)
- Reindeer cupcakes
- Ice-cream cone trees
- Popcorn garland
- Gingerbread house
- Snowman Cupcakes
There are lots of savoury ideas out there too but I got sidetracked by the cake… sorry! :)

…keeps the doctor away. Or so they say. We know this isn’t technically true. But we do know that fruit is good for you and that our children could definitely benefit for some fruity goodness :) Often getting children to eat fruit isn’t the easiest though and sometimes the key is to make eating fruit fun! Here’s 7 fun and yummy ideas that will make apples much more appetizing…
- Apple nachos from Taste of Home
- Squirmy wormy apple snack from The Family Kitchen
- Spiced apple crisps from A Cozy Kitchen
- 3D Apple puzzle, find out how to make it at Cute Food for Kids
- Apple monsters from Parents
- Apple smiles fromFamily
