🍪 Building Independence, One Cookie at a Time 🍪
Today we spent time baking cookies, and it was about so much more than just the end result. Baking is a brilliant way to support our clients in building independence, confidence, and life skills in a fun and relaxed environment.
From reading the recipe, measuring ingredients, mixing, timing the oven, and cleaning up afterwards, every step helps develop practical skills that can be used in everyday life. It also encourages decision-making, following instructions, and working safely in the kitchen.
Most importantly, it gives our clients a real sense of achievement and pride — especially when they can enjoy something they’ve made themselves or share it with others.
Simple activities like this play a big role in empowering people to feel more capable, confident, and independent 💙
And of course… the cookies were delicious! 😄🍪
