Cookie Decorating
I made sugar cookies and bought a big gingerbread man (at Trader Joe's for $2) for us to decorate. Whipped up a simple buttercream frosting (3c powdered sugar, 2 sticks of butter, 1tbl vanilla, a few tbl of milk) and added some different food colorings for fun. Maya had a great time playing with all of it, though the adults did a lot of the decorating.
Managing to sneak a little fine motor work into our decorating
Maya decides that she wants to use the blue icing. About 10 seconds after this picture she came to the conclusion that the knife was too difficult to use, and dove in with her hand.
Grandma, there's icing on my hand!
And then she rolled the frosted hand in sprinkles. It looks delicious.
