Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22nd. This year we decided to make some fun cookies to go along with our lessons about Earth Day and how we can take better care of the earth!
Of course, we had to make our cookies Mickey shaped! Why not? To make these cookies, all you need is sugar cookie dough, blue and green food coloring and a Mickey shaped cookie cutter.
First make your dough. Then divide it into two separate bowls. Use the blue and green food coloring to make your two colors. (This part will probably be messy, but fun!)
Once you’ve got the colors you want, take a little bit of each color and roll it together in a bowl. Then flatten it down (we just used our hands) and use the cookie cutter to cut out your shape.
Bake according to your sugar cookie recipe. This will obviously spread when they bake, so the smaller cookie cutter, the better your cookies will look.
And that’s it! Pretty simple! And makes for a fun sensory activity too when you mix in those colors by hand!
Have fun celebrating Earth Day! 🌎
