Easy Recipes for Kids and Making Homemade Gifts

Do you want an activity that is fun for you and your kids? How would you and the kids like to make someone happy and feel special? Maybe you could make some gifts together for some loved ones? You could make grandma's or grandapa's day much brighter, wish a great aunt or uncle a happy birthday or maybe even show you child's teacher how important they are.

So what would be some great homemade gifts that you and your kids could make together?

Cakes and cupcakes are easy to make and best of all allow for kids to design creative decorations, but today we'll focus on cookies, specifically the kind that don't require baking: no bake cookies. There is a big variety of ingredients you could use such as chocolate, peanut butter, oats, etc. One of my favorite no bake cookies is chocolate peanut butter no bake cookies. The combination is to die for! In fact, that makes me picture a bowl of butterscotch ice cream in front of me right now mixed with peanut butter and topped with chocolate syrup. Yum! That gives me another idea for more great recipes for kids to write about in the future.

Chocolate peanut butter no bake cookies take no time to make, are easy and require little ingredients. The kids can help you measure the ingredients, mix them and drop the mix onto the baking sheet. They'll feel like pastry chefs!

Then store them in the fridge in a sealed plastic container with the cookies sitting between layers of wax paper. Right before delivery place them in a decorative tin box and include a creative gift message. Have your son bring a smile to grandma's face with a box of these decadent cookies topped with a ribbon tied around it and a message inside like, "Hope your heart is filled with joy today just like this tin is filled with these delicious cookies I made for you. I'm thinking about you grandma!" Your daughter could deliver a gift wrapped tin box to her third grade teacher with a message such as, "You've helped me get good grades. Hope these cookies get a good grade too. Thanks Mrs. Carter for everything."

You and the kids will have fun and Mrs. Carter and grandma will be filled with happiness. Chocolate peanut butter no bake cookies make great grandparents gifts, teacher gifts, birthday gifts, thank you gifts and more. Enjoy spending some quality time with your kids. And they'll feel good about making others smile.
