Feast for Families
Activities and More to Encourage Fun Family Time
Want some help in the kitchen? Look no further than the younger members of your family!
Children ages two and up can develop skills in the kitchen to help prep and prepare meals. This week we are sharing a fun little chart that will give you some insight into what you can work on with your child depending on their age. What a fun way to bring the love of cooking and meal prep to even the youngest family members! Click the link below for a fun infographic about what you can have your kiddos helping with for your next feast!
A Easy Family Easter Tradition
Do you have a pile of empty plastic Easter Eggs after they have all been cracked open? Then I would love to share an easy and precious family tradition with you. My great grandmother, Virginia, who was Nan to everyone who was blessed to know her, always placed a plastic Easter Egg at each seat at the table at Easter Dinner. In each egg was a small slip of paper with a question on it. The questions were almost always the same year to year, but the person who received them was very rarely the same. It was a great tradition to go around the table and everyone open their egg and answer their question. Something so simple has always been a treasured memory. Maybe consider using your empty plastic eggs to start a new tradition this year around your family table.
Wishing you a Blessed Easter!

Bird’s Nest Cookies Recipe
I fondly remember making these as a child. They are not only delicious, but quick and easy and perfect for your youngest kitchen helper.
Have fun making and sharing these fun treats!
Setting the Table
Does your child know how to set the table? Maybe this would be a great time to practice! We are going to share a place setting printable that you can use to encourage proper place setting of the family dining table. After you practice with paper, take time to set the table before you sit down to eat a family.
