I've been trying to fill our days with festive activities. Yesterday we made miscotes, a favorite family cookie. I used Lauren's idea to have Ethan paint the frosting on with paint brushes, and then Ethan got to use sprinkles, which he loves, so it was fun for him. Today was the most successful activity so far. We were going to make gingerbread houses, but I saw that Stacy made a gingerbread train, and knew Ethan would prefer that. We used graham crackers and homemade frosting. He LOVED it! He made sure it had a number, a face, and a tender for coal, just like his Thomas engines. It has many real parts of an engine (boiler, tender, wheels, steam whistle, driver, etc), not that you can really tell.
