Pretzels
Pretzels will keep the children entertained for a long while! Have them help mix up the ingredients, then they can make shapes, ABCs, animals and more. If you’re feeling adventurous, color a bit of the dough with food coloring and let their minds wander. After they’re done creating, then they can eat! It’s a win-win-win!
