Cinnamon Ornaments

I love to do craft projects.  I love to do craft projects with Michael and Mary Ellen.  But I especially love to do craft projects with M&M that they can actually do.  This was definitely a winner!


The recipe is super simple; a cup of applesauce and a cup of cinnamon, roll it out and cut into fun Christmas shapes.


Not only did they help roll out the dough...



But they chose what cookie cutters they wanted and were able to cut them out too!


They were so proud when they saw how many they cut out.


They loved to watch them in the oven...just at their eye-level.  The ornaments take a few hours at a very low temp in the oven so they watched them off and on.  The best part was the AMAZING smell.  Perfect Christmas activity for a cold winter day!
