Hi, I'm Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids. For the past years of my blogging, I have been baking and cooking a lot for my husband and kid and feel like baking a lot too for happy kids. As my baking progresses, I begin to realise that cooking and baking my own food plus getting kids involved in our daily cooking has encouraged both adults and little kids to eat more good and healthy foods.
In December 2012, my friendship with Doreen from my little favourite DIY has prompted us to organise a cooking/baking family-oriented event named "Little Thumbs Up".
This event starts every first Tuesday of the month and end in on the last day of the month. For each month, one rotating hostess of this event will nominate an ingredient (preferably something healthy for your family). Using the ingredient of the month, all participating blog post will cook or bake and link up at the hostess's blog.
Please take note of the Do's of this event:
1) Please join us whenever you can. There is NO members' list and this event is opened for everyone. Please feel free to display "Little Thumbs Up" badge on your blog post if you wish to join.
