Easy Baking Recipes For Kids - Basic Pantry Ingredients

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS.

Ok, so here's the thing, we all know baking with kids is probably a good thing, but sometimes we can run out of time (and perhaps patience) to actually bake with our kids

It now seems highly likely that many of us around the world are going to find ourselves at home with the kids for a period of time

Some of us may revel at the thought of this, some of us may think eeep how will I entertain and perhaps educate these kids while we can't get out and about

This made me think that a collection of Easy Baking Recipes for Kids could well be useful for people.
