The coronavirus quarantine continues to wear on, and it’s hard to know when our lives will get back to some form of normal just yet. Being cooped up inside the house for an unknown duration of time is frustrating for children and adults alike. However, children get the shorter end of the stick, because they need more outside time and a range of activities to grow and develop.
Gainfully engaging kids bored at home (read: without excessive screen time) is something most parents struggle with. They easily run out of things to do when bored, and instead, start watching TV or playing with smartphones and tablets.
Cooking with children, and especially baking, is a useful way to pass the day and get the children excited about helping around the kitchen. After all, who wouldn’t want to participate in bringing delicious treats to life?

Remember that when you’re baking, getting the right quantities will determine the quality of the product you get in the end.
