What a fun way to get the kids involved. I am also hosting a giveaway, I would love it if you came and stopped by:http://GianandMcKinley.blogspot.com
What a fun idea. To make it a bit safer… I think I would trace their hands on paper or cereal box then use that to cut the cookies out. I can’t wait to make them.
my heart just swelled – I just love this. My nephew has autism and my sister is always looking for crafts that he might be able to do, he happens to be just in love with “finger painting” so this might be something he could do and I will pass it on……just awesome!
This looks so fun to make with the kids! Just shared on our Fun Finds Friday… http://kitchenfunwithmy3sons.blogspot.com/2012/01/fun-finds-friday.html
