When my youngest kid has a playdate at home, we cook! These nine-year-olds love it. We made fruit smoothies, cookies, and bread (the favorite one), and on this last visit, we made Brazilian Brigadeiros truffles.
Brazilian Brigadeiros truffles They turned out excellent; when the kids arrived, they helped me to stir the mixture before cooking. And then, they went to play until the mixture reached the right temperature.

We made little balls, rolled them in different sprinkles, and put them in decorated boxes to take home. Ultra recommended this activity for children.
