2 Fun Activities

It's been a while since I posted a Kids Activity or a Recipe. So here is two in one go.
They are both very inexpensive just using up what's in your cupboards.

Be Thankful Craft
You just need paper/cardboard preferably coloured. Cut petals, circles and stalks. Make flowers and write on the petals what the children are thankful for.
My 3 year old boy who doesn't like crafts found this fun!

Marble Cake




3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup white flour
1 tsp baking powder
50g melted butter
2 tblsp boiling water
1 tblsp cocoa
2-3 drops of red food colouring

Beat eggs until thick. Gradually beat in sugar until mixture is very thick and white. Sift flour and baking powder together. Fold into egg mixture. Fold in butter and boiling water. Divide mixture into three equal parts. Into one-third stir the cocoa, and to another third add enough red food colouring to make a pink mixture. Leave the last third plain. Spoon the three mixtures in diagonal stripes into a greased and lined 20 cm square cake tin. Using a knife twirl together the three mixtures. Bake at 190C for 20-25 minutes or until the cakes springs back when lightly touched.
Leave in tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
