Our Kids' Cookie Decorating Play Date

A couple weeks before Christmas

I hosted a Cookie Decorating Play Date!

It was really fun seeing their creativity go wild!

And I was impressed with how clean the floor was at the end of this. ;)
A Cookie Decorating Party would be a great

theme for a child's birthday party!

Or have a grown up one and pull out the fancy cookie decorating books for inspiration.

This post is making me go into a sugar come just looking at it. ;)

KEYS TO SUCCESS:
1. Bought pre-made sugar cookies from Grocery Store's Bakery
(Know the bakers so got a discount! But best purchase..saved time and a dirty kitchen :)

2. I had each of the moms bring sprinkles to add to the mix!
(I loved seeing the variety.. and the kids loved contributing to the fun table!)

I put out sugar cones and M&M's for the

kids to decorate as trees! 

Some of them rolled the frosted cones in sprinkles! super cute.

Sophia's looked like one big blob of Christmas! haha. very festive. ;)
She had no interest in eating these..it was all about the making pretty!

How cute are my mom and sienna on the bottom left??? :)
Sienna loves to shoosh people right now.
