Since it was Shrove Tuesday today, we decided to make pancakes as a fun "crafty" meal. So I went to the web to find some ideas and a recipe.
A friend of mine recently introduced me to a new site called Pintrest and I am absolutely addicted. It is basically a bookmarking site where you bookmark images and other websites you have found on the web in a public place where others can see what you have bookmarked. You store these images in categorized 'boards' that others can view.
Since being introduced to the site I have spent hours and hours of enjoyment as I endlessly creeped other people's 'boards' for ideas. This is where I found our monkey pancakes. I came across this great blog - Kitchen Fun with My 3 Sons . What a great site! A mom makes different meal ideas with her kids in mind. They are always creative and I'm sure will induce a picky eater to try new things.
Above you can see my rendition of her Monkey Pancakes and below, check out her version:
I obviously have not had as much practice as she has............. ;) I'm sure I will get better with some effort.
Please share if you have found any amazing blogs or sites out there that are a hit with kids.

Happy parenting,
