Cookie Decorating with Christian -- 2014

With Christmas only 2 days away, we have put a pretty good dent in our Christmas Bucket List

{At least as much as we could without snow!!}

Last week at our weekly play date at our house, we decorated Christmas cookies! The kids {most boys!!!} really got into it! A lot more than I was expecting. 

The kids ranged in age from about 15 months to 3 years old. 

Lots of frosting was eaten and plenty of sprinkles were sprinkled {on the floor too!} but surprisingly enough, each kid probably frosted 4-6 cookies! 


I pre-baked the cookies so all the focus during the play date could be just on decorating. 

There was plenty of homemade frosting {of all colors} and the kids ate it by the spoonful! But they also did a pretty good job of actually getting the frosting on the cookies too {some with more help than others}.

The little squeeze tubs of frosting were a bit of a hit, as well as the sprinkles! I should have gotten a bigger variety of sprinkles. The kids kept asking for specific colors or kinds that I didn't have! ha ha! 

Through all of the fun and chaos of the event, this was the only picture I was able to snap of Christian -- green frosting up his nose after shoving a cookie in his own face to eat the frosting ha ha! 


And of course -- Christian's own masterpieces! 


Did you decorate cookies with your littles? What is their favorite part? Do you have any favorite "decorations" for your cookies?
