Simple and fun recipes to make with kids! The ingredients are basic and staple ingredients you likely have on hand. You’ll love the recipe ideas in this post for 20 Fun and Easy Recipes to Make with Kids.

Today I am sharing fun and easy recipes to make with kids! These 20 recipes are ones I have made many times and that my kids enjoy making with me and of course eating too! And if you don’t have kids to make these recipes with, these recipes are all ones I personally love! They are perfect for anyone who has a little time to bake and create.

As you know, life right now is unreal! This is a challenging time and my prayers are with you all. I hope you are doing well and have good support of people close to you. This is a trying time but it will help strengthen us and it’s a wonderful opportunity to be a light to those around us and help out where we can.

We are doing well. We have basically been home for two weeks straight with barely leaving the house. Just going outside for sunshine on the days it’s warm enough. Most of my time is spent helping my kids with their school work. I never wanted to homeschool so this is new to me! To help make our time at home more enjoyable, my kids have been baking with me. It’s brought joy to us and so that’s why I put this post together so you can have a great resource of our favorite recipes!

These recipes are simple and quick. They are perfect to make with kids and of course, kid-approved because my kids have had each of these recipes and love it!

Let me know in the comments, how you are doing and which of these fun and easy recipes you’d like to try first!
