Ginger Applesauce- Kids in the Kitchen

It is truly intriguing to understand the mind of a little child who is exploring the world of books and the joys of reading. There is so much wonder and awe to discover a world full of imagination and to realize that he can now understand it. Reading skills are truly empowering to a child. 


Joel discovered his favourite story characters loved applesauce! So we decided to prepare applesauce together. I've got no pictures to show my sous chef preparing applesauce. Frankly I was afraid having to discover that there werent enough apples for the recipe if I had to leave sous chef alone while I prepared the camera, apples being his favourite fruit! He helped to peel and chop the apples and was thrilled to see it transform at the end.
