      If your little one likes to help you cook, include a small jar with premixed ingredients (dry) for pancakes. When all of the presents are opened, all you have to do is add the wet ingredients, and you have almost instant pancakes! For fun colors and flavors, you can add jam or marmalade when adding in wet ingredients! Or in the jar with dry ingredients, add chocolate chips or raisins!

      My kids love books, and the little ones that have the hard cardboard pages fit perfectly in the stocking and are very durable!
