Dragon Bread


DRAGON BREAD
My son is now attending a Waldorf Program for first grade. But I will continue to share some of the activities we did last year during our Homeschool Kindy adventures in The Pirate School of Make Believe!
We made Dragon Bread for Michaelmas. We used the recipe from Bread making with Children. My son sculpted the dough and then added raisins for eyes and crushed almonds all over! We also read the story. "The Most Beautiful Dragon in the Whole World" and water colored a sky with a sun to go along with the story! We also dyed silk capes from Marigolds growing in our Garden with friends at a park on a camp stove. I highly recommend that you buy mortar or alum for this project so that the color stays better! Wishing you a season of courage and strength!
