re: Running a cake business during the school holidays

I have two under 4 at home and run a cake business. They love to be involved, Esme especially loves to make sugar flowers….if I have a marathon sugar flower day…she gets her own work station with fondant in an array of colors (usually my leftovers from the week) cutters, a rolling pin, wires…she goes to town, it keeps her occupied and happy and allows me to do my work. Teddy is happy being a taste tester. They both enjoy helping me bake and clean…today was family clean the kitchen day. They get a bucket with soapy water and a sponge and I let them do the walls and Windows. It’s easier to let them help than to fight against them and send them away to play. It also eases my guilt in being a work at home mum.
