Mother's Day is around the corner and that means its time for some extra loving. With everyone at home, we know everyone has to pitch in but if there was one day to tell Mom she's special and deserves a little pampering, it's Mother's Day. It's on 10 May, Sunday this year. 

My kids have always enjoyed helping in the kitchen, especially my son. We have always used this time to bond and make some fun memories. Now with the lockdown, I've been trying to teach them more life skills to set them up for their life ahead So if your kids are interested in cooking or you would like for them to develop this life skill, the Mini Masterchef course is a part of the KSP Summer Fun Factory and you can get access to it right here. 

We have 2 tried and tested easy recipes that your kids can make with little or no help depending on the age of your child. Ask your husband to help them. The instructions are simple and so are the ingredients. My kids have made them for me which is why I thought they would be perfect to share with all of you.

So happy Mother's Day and enjoy yourself!
