Mark asked Maddie what she wanted for breakfast and of course she said pancakes! Her normal breakfast usually consists of pancakes, oatmeal, malt-o-meal, waffles, or french toast. All are Maddie’s favorite things to eat in general. However this morning Mark volunteered Mommy to make pancakes. So I did what every good mom does, asks if her 2 1/2 yr. old wants to help. So we dashed, measured, tasted, and ended up with yummy pancakes and great memories! I’m excited to start making play-doh and other concoctions with her! As the movie the Magic school bus says; “it’s time to take chances, get messy, and make mistakes”!

Maddie learned about stirring gently and being careful to make sure everything stayed IN the bowl!

Enjoying the syrup the most. Notice the syrup looks a lot like soup.
Maddie eating her finished product! She put her own syrup on so it turned out to be a little pancake with her syrup!
