Is anyone else doing a lot more baking at the moment? I'm about to run out of flour for the first time (I've been really lucky so far, so I definitely can't complain) but we have been baking at least once a week. Chocolate cookies have been our go-to faves, but we've also made birthday cakes for family members we haven't seen since the beginning of the year and scones for virtual afternoon teas. Here are five picture books which will encourage you to have fun in the kitchen (if you track down some mythical flour, that is!)
Bunny Makes Breakfast is a lovely life-the-flap book where two bunnies's set out to gather ingredients for a mystery recipe. We read this story a lot because it's a big favourite in our house. My son loves looking for berries and eggs in Bunny's garden.
In Kipper's Birthday, a mix-up with party invitations leaves Kipper with a lot of birthday baking to eat all by himself!
Bake A Rainbow Cake is a superb, interactive board book with bright, bold artwork. It's a visual delight and lots of fun to play with.
Another birthday cake disaster occurs in Dylan the Baker. Dylan is trying not to eat Jolly Otter's birthday cake before his party, but it's hard to ignore the delicious smell wafting from his kitchen...
Little Bear's Picnic is part of the same series as Bunny Makes Breakfast. Children will love lifting the flaps to find a rainbow of foods for a delicious picnic treat.
