I used to let my little ones in the kitchen to make pizza, make the dough in the bread machine (skip the stage that bakes it of-course:) ) If you do not have a bread machine use homemade crust by hand or store bought. Then let the kids throw on all the toppings of their choice. I used to let them use their hands to apply the sauce to the pizza crust, (after they had thoroughly washed their hands) they really loved this part best! Then bake their pizza, slice and eat!
Next make mix up a cake mix and then place the batter into ice cream cone cups the kind with the flat bottom, and bake according to cup cake directions, when cool let the kids have a ball decorating them ! They look really neat cause as the batter cooks and rises it looks just like a scoop of ice cream on top!!! Get lots of neat sprinkles and decorating stuff!
For breakfast try this: make some pancakes and then while still hot and fresh off the griddle top them with Nutella (found in the p-ut butter section of the grocery store) then slice 1/2 a banana on top. Usually 1 med to large pancake is enough to fill a little guy or gal up! MY 9 YEAR OLD LOVES THIS AND HAS IT ABOUT 3 MORNINGS A WEEK!!!
Have fun with them youngins'
