Eight to Eat at Christmas

You may actually have a little time to do fun stuff with your kids, so get them into the kitchen for some not-too-complicated holiday fun.

Underneath the brownie tree

No event ever is complete without a brownie! Make the exact ones you made for Easter shaped like a bunny, but shape it like a tree this time. Kids will have fun decorating their brownie tree and licking the bowl! Brownie Christmas tree recipe.

Christmas mess

It is a not-so-clever play on words around the traditional Eaton Mess dessert, but this one comes with less guilt because it is healthy-er. Fruit and yoghurt with a dash of meringue and a light pudding option after you've eaten the turkey, gammon and lamb! Eton mess Christmas recipe. 

Grinch-mas pop
 

Make an ordinary bowl of popcorn a little more festive in all the wrong ways with this Grinch-inspired party snack. Plonk it on the kids’ table for a bit of fun for them and peace and quiet for you! Grinch Christmas popcorn recipe.

Krispie reindeers.

There's nothing like a ‘Krispie’ reindeer, but not in the charred and smokey kind of way but more in the yummy Rice Krispies and marshmallow kind of way. Thrown in a few pretzels and a red M&M, and wham, you have a reindeer! Reindeer Rice Krispie treat recipe.

Snowman in Africa

What happens when a snowman visits Africa? He melts onto a biscuit and is put on a plate. Note to snowmen: keep North! This easy snowman biscuit is so easy to make, and it doesn’t matter if it looks a little messy – melting snow looks wet and messy! Melted snowman biscuit recipe.

The fit deer

For families who run a 'fit week' and 'sweet weekend' routine, here's a healthy option for you. Just focus on how cute the reindeer is with his horns and red nose, and they won’t even notice the celery… Peanut butter celery reindeer sticks recipe.

Santa's jelly belly

Now, most of us are not big fans of our jelly bellies, but when it comes to Santa, the bigger the better! Who doesn't love a wobbly, fruity jelly cup? Ho, ho, ho and a wobble wobble wobble. Fruit cup Santa snacks recipe.

Sushi bells, sushi bells

For those who order the 'all you can eat' at the local sushi place, why not get them into making California Rolls and get a new type of Christmas tree going! The baubles are the ginger and wasabi, and the tinsel is the soy! Cooking with Kids: Making Sushi.
