A month of giving thanks in all that we do. Take a minute to teach your children how to be thankful for all that they have. By doing that you can take a moment at every dinner and go around the table. Children are taught by example.
November brings lots of ideas for crafts and especially for food.
I thought I would post a simple, but really fun thing to do with your kids. I do this with the young ones and even the big ones.
Pancakes are a fun thing at our house. It is not just syrup and butter. I usually keep a supply of marshmallows, chocolate chips, nuts, whip cream, cherries, syrups and anything else you can put on or in a pancake.
When the bigger ones were little we would create all kinds of pancakes to try. I would whip out the big pitcher (for the spout) and make a lot of pancake mix. Then we would start, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and we even at one time did bacon and an egg in the middle.
Today I made blueberry pancakes and the let the kids decorate a face on them. Whip cream mouth, marshmallow eyes, chocolate chip nose and some curly icing hair.
They kids love to make them and eat them.
Maybe take a minute and whip up a batch of pancakes and great creative. Not only is it fun, but you create really great memories.
