Ready-to-eat pudding, one soft plain cookie, a small unbreakable cup, and a spoon
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Stay with the child throughout. Check the space and supplies, including anything within reach of younger siblings. Skip any activity that is unsuitable. Stop if a child puts non-food material in their mouth or becomes distressed. Use intact books, full sheets of paper, a large child-appropriate crayon and a clean, dry towel. Follow product labels; remove torn paper and keep broken crayons and caps away from children. Adult handles and stores supplies.
Set up: Wash hands. An adult checks ingredient labels for allergies, portions the pudding, and breaks the cookie into fine crumbs.
Adult's role: Check that pudding and cookie are ready to eat, supervise assembly and seated eating, and refrigerate leftovers promptly.
Let's make it happen
- Spoon a little pudding into the cup and sprinkle in some fine cookie crumbs.
- Add another spoonful of pudding and the remaining crumbs. Stir gently so the crumbs soften.
- Enjoy the pudding with a spoon while seated, if you wish.
Make it simpler: Stir a small spoonful of fine cookie crumbs into pudding without layering.
Clean up: Wash the cup and spoon and refrigerate unused perishable ingredients promptly.
For ages 3 and up with an adult. Pudding and cookies may contain milk, egg, wheat, or other allergens; check labels. Avoid hard pieces and supervise eating.
