Happy Shrove Tuesday

After another gorgeous morning out at the park (thankfully without the predicted rain) we came home, got clean (there were quite a few muddy and sandy fingers thanks to the park), ate a scrummy lunch and then set about making pancakes.  I had printed off a visual recipe for the children to follow, and with a little assistance they made the pancake batter themselves.


Each child had a job to do....


HT measured out the flour.


J sprinkled in the salt.


Everyone gave a good stir.


Albie and HB cracked an egg each (just look at HB's face when the egg cracked!).


T measured and poured the milk.


Then everyone helped to stir up the mixture.

 (Albie was given a plate to put the egg shell on - somehow it ended up in the bowl with the flour?!)

We tasted pancakes with lemon and sugar, and with chocolate spread.  It was pretty much 50/50 with regards to our favourite topping, everybody liked both toppings!  Yummy!
