Baking with Kids

This week we’re pleased to welcome Helen from The Crazy Kitchen. Helen is a work-from-home mum, juggling life with three children, including a toddler who loves to bake. We’ve been admiring Helen’s child friendly recipes for a while and just love her enthusiasm for getting kids involved in the kitchen!

We are sharing a recipe for a simple Jam Roly Poly that you can prepare in under 30 minutes. If you haven’t already tried cooking with your children why not give it a go and start creating your own memories.
