As promised, here are some pics of Sam baking. He actually does most of his baking at pre-school (for all of you who thought that I baked...ha ha ha ha). They have made apple pies, and gingerbread cookies.
Proud of his gingerbread man he made at pre-school
He admitted that his role was limited to adding the chocolate bits. But he got the eyes in the right place (the first things to go, too, when he ate it).
Sam with his next batch of pre-school gingerbread
This time it was quite obvious that he did the cutting out...as things were a bit mangled. But I see the learning progression here. He explained the process to me as follows (with hand actions) : "roll, roll, roll...cut, cut, cut...then cook!"
Rolling the dough
Sam also helped me make some gingerbread cookies (lesson - one package of IKEA gingerbread goes a long way...don't need 2 packages) and some peanut butter balls (he was fired when he kept eating more than he was rolling).
Next up, our trip to Montreux on the Swiss Riviera.
