Who can resist those adorable pleas from our little ones when they ask if they can bake something special for Mother’s Day? Satisfy your chefs-in- training by letting them help you make these fun and yummy muffins with tasks for kids of all ages to share. Your pre-school bunch will adore helping you measure and stir while your older ones will love supervising their siblings and being in charge of the baking. (Pssst! Got kids with picky palettes? Then do check out my Kid-Friendly Recipe Collection!)
And what kid doesn’t like to eat muffins? I’m not sure who is going to gobble up my P B & J Oatie Muffins first…you or the kids! If your family loves apple pie, my Chunky Apple Muffins won’t add extra pudge to your bellies! And of course, I had to include one of my absolute favorites… Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins. Bet your gang can’t eat just one!
Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins are extra fudgey…but shhhhh…no one needs to know what the secret ingredient is that adds a healthy dose of “green” without sacrificing taste! And Sweet Morning Muffins are power-packed with nutritional goodness that will keep tummies full until lunchtime.

Other goodies your kids will enjoy whipping up for Mom are:
So get out the camera, aprons, bowls, mixing spoons and other kid-safe kitchen tools and let the memory making begin! And don’t forget to supply plenty of paper, scissors, glue, paint and crayons so your kids can create beautiful placemats and table decorations to make your Mother’s Day one you will always remember.
BONUS!! A super-easy and fun dish for your Cinco de Mayo celebrations!
Happy’s Mother’s Day!
