I had a hilarious time reading this post. It’s so true and I absolutely agree with you. Thanks for making me feel confident to bake with my toddler boy again. =) I love reading your blog, thanks!

May I suggest eggless cookie recipes? I have to use them anyway for an allergic husband and no salmonella worries!

What I’ve learned about cooking with my little guy is to measure everything out ahead of time in little bowls – eggs are cracked in a bowl, flour in a bowl. Yeah, it’s extra work and dishes – but I’ve tackled tougher recipes this way with my helper and we are still here to tell the tale! Plus, if I’m distracted, I don’t forget anything — if there’s an extra bowl of something at the end – mix it in!

Thanks for changing the comment setting! I have a lot of comments saved up. We cherish “Mama, do you love me?” also, and the moon craft reminded me of the gigantic moon on one of the pages.

Mollie Katzen has a couple of great books about cooking with toddlers. We especially enjoy 2 baking recipes from “Salad People”, the rosemary focaccia and the chewy energy circles. My son will eat the circles but not the focaccia, though.

And supervise, supervise, supervise! My daughter recently poured an ENTIRE bottle of vanilla into muffins when I turned to answer the phone. LOL

My 2 1/2 yo loves to bake with me. I quickly learned that baking from a mix helps…as does having everything out, or even partially measured ahead of time.
