Pretend Baking
I love to play pretend baking with my little ones.
Here's some fun ways to play. With different colors of playdoh create burgers. Yellow for the bun, green for the lettuce, orange for the meatpattie, red for the lettuce. Stack them up and continue the fun. Pretend to play burger bar with your kids taking turns being the chef and customer. Another neat game I like to play is Cake baker. My kids love to decorate cakes with decorations. It's especially fun when after you have practiced with play doh, go ahead and try make a real cake or buy one and then mix up some icing with different colors and make some really neat cupcake designs. We also play Pizza parlour. Creating pizzas with our playdoh. I have also made roast dinners. It's fun to see what they make, and ask them what they like to eat. It gives me a good indication of what they like and dislike. If it's food they dislike, I try to get the kids to make it and learn to like it. It works most of the time. But they still don't like brussell sprouts... hahah. |
