Kid's Kitchen Cakes!

Yesterday was the second day of Kids Kitchen, where twelve kids gathered at the LYN House to create their own 8in. mini cakes.  Mrs. Carol, who has been making cakes for years, was our guest ‘chef.’  The kids had a terrific time preparing and mixing their own cake ingredients, making decorative cake plates, and preparing colorful butter cream icing.  While the cakes were baking and cooling, the children learned about the value of patience in the daily devotion.  We all knew good things would come out of us patiently waiting for our cakes to bake; in the same way good things come out of our being patient in all areas of life.  Being patient with other shows true love.  Patiently waiting on God shows trust in his perfect timing and gives us strength.  In addition, journal entries were made by each child on the steps to make a cake.  After the cakes had cooled, the students enjoyed decorating their vanilla and chocolate cakes with colorful icing and various cake decorations that Mrs. Carol had brought for them to use.  The kids couldn’t wait to get home and show their families their beautiful, sweet creations!....And of course, eat them!
