Cooking Games and the Holidays


Cooking games are a natural part of the holiday season. Many families come together to make cookies or treats for teachers and other family members. When you share the experience of the cooking games, it’s easy to really get to know everyone without the pressure and the drama of the shopping malls or the even the grocery stores.

This holiday season treat your family to a real event in your household. While everyone is away at school or at a friend’s house, make a huge batch of cut-out sugar cookies. Then mix up icing in a variety of colors and arrange it into bowls. Sit your kids down after dinner and have them start decorating the cookies. Make it a rule that nobody can get up until every cookie is decorated. Even if your teenage children don’t get into as much as you’d like, they might still enjoy the experience and you’ll have given them a chance to enjoy a fun holiday treat during the most important time of the year.
