Painting Breakfast for Dinner


Breakfast for dinner happens often in our house.  It used to be once a week…Martini Wednesday with omelets.  Now it is usually every other week.  On Pinterest I found an activity to paint bread.  It uses milk and food coloring.  I though this would be a fun idea for Derek.  A friend of mine had also done this idea and said “I should have dipped it in egg and made French toast.”  So that’s what we did!

I laid out the bread on a cookie sheet and he painted it with the milk and food coloring mixture.  In the meantime, Daddy cooked the bacon.  When the bread was finished being painted, Daddy cooked the French toast while Derek helped me to melon ball the watermelon.  (This was less successful because all he did was make a mess and eat the watermelon!)

all finished!

Yum!
Then voila! Breakfast for dinner was served!  Fun activity to get the kid involved plus we made dinner as a family.
