Put down the screens. Let's make some mummies! 🎃

🔥

Sometimes the best way to connect with our kids is to get their hands busy doing something together.

These Mummy-Wrapped Breadsticks are a perfect little Halloween kitchen project. They're fun to make, a little messy, and nobody cares if their mummy comes out looking a little crooked.

Little hands can help wrap the dough. Older kids can do the shaping. Everybody gets to add the goofy eyes. And when they're finished, you've got warm, golden breadsticks to dip in marinara sauce.

That's the kind of play I love. Kids are learning without feeling like they're being taught. They're following directions, working with their hands, being creative, and spending time with someone who matters to them.

I'm Henry Hunter, and I teach bread baking through Baking Great Bread at Home and Crust & Crumb Academy. One of the things I care about most is getting families into the kitchen together.

That's why we created our Kids Can Bake collection in the Recipe Pantry. Recipes that give kids something they can actually make, with a little help from a grown-up.

You can explore the recipes here:

This Halloween, give them a little flour, some dough, and permission to make a mess.

The screens can wait. These memories won't.

Perfection isn't required. Just show up and have some fun together.
