As an Aussie who did NOT grow up with snow days, I was enamored by the idea of having the day off from school to play in the snow (all because of an episode of the Simpsons).
What I didn't anticipate was the amount of planning, layering and negotiation required to actually get my Little One out of the door - followed almost immediately by a meltdown because the "snow is attacking my eyes".
If this past weekend left you stuck indoors, trying to figure out what to do next - I feel you!
A couple of friends messaged me for recipes to bake with their Little Ones while stuck inside. So here is my small contribution to our community.
An easy, low-stress recipe to bake with your Little One - something that gives the day a bit of structure, a clear beginning and end and a finished thing to be proud of at the end.
This cake come straight from Allegra Bakes a Cake, the children's book I published over a year ago - and I promise, its simple, fun and very forgiving.
