Salt Dough Ornaments & Cookies for the Fire Fighters

Two of our advent activities were making salt dough ornaments and baking Christmas cookies to take to the fire fighters.  The boys both made their handprints and then we baked the salt dough ornaments.  I will treasure these for years to come.  





If you know my boys at all you know they LOVE (and I feel like that is even an understatement) firemen and everything having to do with fire fighting.  I knew they would love baking cookies and taking them to the local fire department.  Samuel talked on and on about how excited the firemen would be when we got there and how they would think our cookies were so delicious.  He was beside himself as we drove there.  It was amazing how quiet and shy he actually was as we walked through the department looking and "riding/driving" the fire trucks.
