Decorating Christmas Cookies

We decorated our Christmas cookies this week. The kids love "painting" their cookies with red, green, blue, and yellow frosting and adding sprinkles. The paint brushes make frosting the cookies easier and they look like little paintings when they are done.

Thursday- Decorating Cookies

Decorating cookies is a fun art project for us. I mix up powdered sugar frosting to a medium consistency- not to thin and not to thick. We make small bowls of several different colors and the kids "paint" their cookies with small paint brushes. The brushes make it easy for them to spread the frosting and use different colors. They get to eat a cookie when they are done decorating their plate full of cookies.
