As we drove home from Art Class today, Ben said, “It has been a good day!”. Last week he got the idea that he would like to bake some Lace Cookies for his class. We had first made the cookies a few weeks ago during one of our Friday cooking sessions. They are more candy then cookie – just Ben’s style. We baked them yesterday afternoon and he was quite happy with the result. He reported that everyone in the class loved them.
The best part was that it had been his idea. It is hard for a kid to feel much satisfaction in something that they do not take ownership in and the opposite is equally true. I told him that I hoped he would be coming up with more good ideas.
