Christmas is right around the corner. I cannot believe we are into the final countdown. My oldest is asking every day if it is Christmas yet. We are doing our best to keep her busy each day. A great way to do this is by decorating gingerbread cookies and houses. It just might be her favourite activity so far this holiday season… that and ice skating.
Recently Evie had the opportunity to decorate a mini gingerbread house while we were on a mini vacation thanks to my friend Tairalyn. They were just the perfect size for younger kids. Would you believe she found kits that contained 5 mini houses? PERFECT! If you are doing a gingerbread decorating party with youngsters you must attempt to find these. They are just the right size, the kids get to still experience putting the house together and decorating it. The icing set quickly. I was so impressed. I’m actually debating picking up a couple kits for my families Christmas dinner and putting them out with some decorations for everyone to decorate. We’re all big kids at heart right? Why can’t the adults have some fun too.
This week we have lots of holiday prep to do which includes baking a few more cookies. We will be turning on our favourite holiday shows that are on Netflix. You can see what some of our favourites are here. How would you like to have the opportunity to check out Netflix Canada, or have 6 months free?
