Rainbow Pancakes
I haven’t been consistent with Jia’s schedule. In fact, hindi ko talaga siya naasikaso the past few weeks. I have been so busy with weddings. 
Last week, while working, I heard Jia running upstairs. She was awake from her nap. I decided right there and then to stop working muna and spend time with her kahit sandali. I called her and we made pancakes. But not just ordinary pancakes, multi-colored ones!! I prepared the batter already (one-step hotcake mix of Pillsbury) and just had Jia mix the colors. She had fun mixing the batter and watching it turn into different colors. Nakakatuwa kasi tignan like when you put red food color, red na, then when you add blue, purple na. We made three sets of batter — purple, green, and orange. In the end, it was Jia who was getting na the spoons from the drawers para maka-start na siya mag-mix agad. Haha!
When I was preparing the pan, Jia didn’t want to go near. “Hot” daw kasi. So I had her stay with Yaya lang mga 2 meters away. She started crying when I put the batter in the skillet. She was saying “No, Mommy, no na!” But I explained to her that that’s what cooking is about and I talked about the times she saw me cooking. When the bubbles appeared, I explained to her na parang boiling na yung pancakes, and it was starting to get cooked, just like Mommy’s adobo. She stopped crying na when she saw the bubbles.
When we were done she was so happy eating the pancakes. Dami niya nakain. A week after, when she saw the pictures in the laptop, she was pretending to get the pancakes from the monitor and eating it again. Haha! Will definitely do this again.
ang cute! mukha ngang she enjoyed making those pancakes hihi!
Thanks, Janis! Ay! She super enjoyed it!
weird colored pancakes but I like!!! Will try this activity too with Sam!
Thanks Clarice for sharing!
Hi Ly! Yes, do this, too. You can have more “manly” colors lang. Haha!
Those are rockin’ pancakes! Im glad Jia had lots of fun! I will try to find some interesting cookie/cake cutters here then I will send them to you so you and Jia can use them when you have your baking activities!
Thanks, Tita Grace!!! Super niya yun magugustuhan!
I can just imagine how much Jia enjoyed doing that. Eh ako nga gusto kong gumawa rin ng rainbow pancakes when I saw a link in fb na may ROYGBIV ones. Next time na may session kayo, pwede ba makisali ako? Mwehehe
Hahaha! Sige, Mimi, tawagin kita. Pag SAHM na ako, gagawin ko yung ROYGBIV! Hahaha!
