Cookies, Cookies, Cookies

One of my FAVORITE cookies are SUGAR COOKIES! I can remember sitting at the counter making them with my Mom and LOVING to help her. For that reason it's one of my favorite things to do with KIDS! Before I had kids I would invite my neice over to make cookies with me for the Holidays, now I can make them with my kids. Although it's not always the EASIEST thing to do, it's fun to have "HELPER'S" every once in a while for cookie making. Emma is at the age where she LOVES it and Zachary is at the age where he just wants to eat the cookies the WHOLE time, but we make it to the end and ALWAYS have fun together!!!Here are my "HELPER'S", all ready to HELP!Emma helped me measure EVERYTHING! She LOVES to count the cups and spoonfuls of things.Zachary just loved to dip his hands into all the ewe and gew!Here's where they REAL help comes in! These 2 become my taste testers.
At our house if you make it you get to be the first to try it!!

As you can see we did have TEARS before the REAL helping part began. Zach was just TOO anxious to help taste test and couldn't wait to try the cookies out! And we MADE IT to the END!
Thanks little HELPERS!!

How cute. However you need to get your handy husband to build little stools for them to stand on that has a barrier all around so they don't fall off! I know some whose little boy fell off a chair in the kitchen and he broke his collar bone :( Wouldn't want one of your little cuties to fall like that! :D
