Corbin loves to be in the kitchen!
He loves to measure and pour and stir. Usually we reserve those activities for the bathtub, where the mess can be contained. But, I decided to be crazy and let him play with oatmeal! I saw the idea in a magazine and decided to try it! He played so contently for 1 1/2 hours! It was like he was taking a nap!!! I got things accomplished and he played, played, played! And the mess was so easy to clean up! Just sweep it up!
I needed to bring muffins for a Go Red event, so we spent an evening in the kitchen making muffins! We wrapped a dish towel around him so he could have a apron!
Corbin thought it was great to be able to open a drawer again! On every drawer we have put the clips so he can't get in! It drives him nuts...but it is to nice to have my mind at ease!!!

I felt about playdough like you do about oatmeal. (great idea by the way) The clean up was worth all the quiet time mommy got.
Good to see him working with food. He will soon be doing Mini Donuts with Grandpa and Grandma.

Harrison & Corbin would be perfect playmates! They love all the same things!
