... when a friend came to visit, our children decided to bake apple pies with him, all on their own.
They went out and picked the apples off our trees, showed him how to use a peeler, made pie crust and mixed up the filling.
I would have to guess, though, that their primary motivation was to enjoy the eating.
We generally only make apple pies during apple picking season so they are a real treat and also happen to be my favorite dessert.
That is great! Wish more children took that initiative instead of pulling out the ipad. My boys love baking and today one of them said: mummy can you please teach me how to use the washing machine :-). Have a lovely weekend. Pam
