Making cookies with 2 under 2

So yesterday my sister-in-law Leslie and I made cookies with Iain and her son Gabe (they are 11days apart). It was so much fun to bake with the boys. We had each of them pour the measuring cups/spoons into the bowls. Than we had them stir the flour to mix all the dry ingredients together. And they thought that it would be fun to flipped it out of the bowl and all of themselves and the floor. It was so cute. They also thought that the flour, baking powder, and salt teased good. They were eating it by the spoonful.

It was such a great way to spend the afternoon. And a wonderful opportunity to teach the boys how to measure out stuff and that if you add stuff together it can be make into something else.
