It wasn't until I became a mother that I learned an important fact about cooking: everything tastes better when it comes in a fun shape.
The Mini Bear Smile Skillet ($18) will assist you in making scrumptious and silly pancakes and crepes that will have your kids begging for seconds. The pan is a great substitute or addition to the cute dollar sized Zoo Animal Pancake Pan we featured a few weeks back.
Do you use shapes to make snacks and meals more appealing for your picky eaters?

I love this, it is so cute!
1But, question....how do you flip it?
2I don't. When they're young enough for it to matter, I just have to cut up the pancake anyway, so why bother?
I tried making Mickey shaped pancakes on my own but then they won't eat them because they don't want to ruin it. *lol* Regular food shapes seem to work just fine.
3Actually I do like using shapes. The Pirate Haus in St. Augustine, FL showed me a cool trick with simply suing a squeeze bottle like a ketchup bottle on a griddle to make your own shapes. You can even write with a thin layer and put the rest of the batter on top when it has cooked for a while.
4lol, greggie - my son eats MORE when they are in cute shapes! Funny how kids are different!
5How cute! I so want this
(for me as well as my daughter lol)
