Peppa Pig and her little brother, George love watching Mummy Pig make pancakes. They giggle as Mummy lets them stir the pancake batter together, and then snort with excitement as Mummy flips the pancakes in the frying pan! Here's a chance for your child to join in with the fun.
Just make sure you don't let Daddy Pig near the frying pan, unless you want the pancakes to end up on the ceiling!

1. Break the eggs into a medium-sized bowl, sieve in the flour and pour in the milk. Explain to your child what you're doing with each of the ingredients, and then let them mix all the ingredients together in the bowl using a wooden spoon.

2. Once the batter is mixed, let them watch as you heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan. If the oil starts to spit, the heat is on too high. Wait a few moments before pouring some of the batter into the pan for the first pancake.

3. Cook the pancake for about 3 minutes, and then flip it over in the pan to cook the other side. This is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for any little kitchen helpers!

4. Repeat instructions for further pancakes

5 Serve pancakes immediately. A sprinkle of sugar, chopped-up fresh or dried fruit all make delicious pancake toppings. Or for an extra creative touch, why not get your child to "draw" a smiley face pancake using pieces of fruit or yoghurt? It's the perfect way to mix healthy-eating and breakfast time fun.
