To make baking with kids easier (and more enjoyable), pre-measure the dry ingredients for your favorite recipe. Eg) flour, baking soda, sugar, oats, choc. chips, for cookies. You can store these ingredients in a jar or plastic container for future use. When the time comes, you only need to add butter and eggs. There will be less mess and your child can pour all the ingredients in himself.
