Baking Buddies

What's the one thing that I love just as much as baking? Kids. I am the oldest of 6 kids(I have 5 sisters and 1 baby brother). And in my family I am one of 12 grandchildren, not to mention that there are 8 great-grandchildren. You get the picture. There's a lot of us. There's always been kids in my life. And I love spending time with them. One of the things I love to do with them is to get them involved in the kitchen. I think it's a great opportunity to not only spend time, but they learn so much. It's awesome to see them learning things like math from measuring and reading from the recipes. Best part is that they generally have no idea that they're learing from cooking and baking-to them it's just plain ol' fun. Here are some pictures of my adventures with kids in the kitchen. There's also some from when I visited Walworth Elementry School in Wisconsin for Career Day. The punchline: The Baker E is available for school activities, family parties, and kids birthday parties. It's easy! I come to your house or party location, I bring the materials and food, and I instruct the kids what to do. I pack everything up and I'm off. Generally, I bring prebaked cupakes or cookies for the kids to decorate. They learn how to use decorating bags and techniques. The kids love it!
