Kids love to get messy and help out when you're whipping up a cake. Next time the children are at a loose end, turn to this book and help them pick out one of the fun and easy recipes to make. The book is divided into seasons, with all sorts of snacks, entrées, desserts, and, of course, sweet treats to put a smile on everyone's face. Spring lends itself to snacks and light entrées, like Salmon Phyllo Parcels and Creamy Spinach Pasta, as well as treats like Sticky Cinnamon Bunsúperfect for the school lunchbox. Summer is all about celebrating fresh beans, juicy berries, and the warm weather, so the kids will enjoy making their own Pea and Parmesan Risotto and Sweet Plum Focaccia. When fall comes and there is more time to spend indoors, it's the perfect season to have fun making pasta children will delight in making different pasta shapes. Help them make Tuna Ravioli and Belly Button Pasta Parcels stuffed with pumpkin, or get the baking pans out and bake a scrumptious Lemon Drizzle Loaf. When the nights draw in, comfort food, indulgent cakes, and festive treats are often on the menu. Cheesy Grissini and Christmas Spice Cookies will keep the kids busy and happy, and make them forget all about the television!
