| HELP!! Kids are 3 years old. I know that age will obviously not make realistic representations of Chase. Skye, Marshal, etc. This is more about having fun with the process for them! Any simple and creative ideas?? Also, any good PP craft ideas for this age group is appreciated? Thanks so much!! |

Would they have fun with Paw Patrol cookie cutters? Etsy has tons of really cute ones.
I know this isn’t really decorating, but they might have fun cutting out the cookie dough. |

| I would just get the dog bone cookie cutter snd make “pup treats” that they can decorate. Much easier. At 3 I would put icing on a few cookies and give them sprinkles, mini m&ms and maybe one other thing to decorate the cookies with. |

I'd focus on the colors of the dogs the most, so use different colored icing. And have fun sprinkles with black sprinkles for eyes.
My 3 year old is pretty good at decorating cookies. He uses butter knives and also the bags of icing. I like to use pie plates under the cookies as they decorate to keep the sprinkles from going everywhere. |

+1 to this. The kids are not going to be able to decorate cookies to make them look like paw patrol. You need to have paw patrol cookies that they can decorate. Make icing colors in the colors of the PP outfits and if you really want to get into it, different colored sprinkles instead of rainbow sprinkles. They can give rubble yellow icing and sprinkles if they want to, Marshall gets red, etc. You can also get sugar eyes. Done! |

I decorate royal icing cookies for a hobby. It is a lot harder than it looks. Also royal icing doesn’t taste good until is dries for 6-8 hours.
Two options - Make plain cookies and ice them white. Let kids draw on them with food safe markers. Make pup face shape cookies and have butter cream in piping bags tied shut with a *SMALL* amount in each. Have candy “eyes” |

| Edible icing "stickers". Or like an edible frosting image. |
