The hardest part of this activity is to persuade the toddlers to get the icing and sprinkles on the biscuits before eating them!
Buy a packet of plain biscuits (rectangular shaped biscuits like malted milk work well for Wubbzy), icing sugar, food colouring and chocolate chips/sugar strands/mini Smarties, etc for decoration. Plain chocolate chips make good Wubbzy eyes and nose, whilst white chocolate buttons can be used for his ears and mouth.
Use about 3 heaped tablespoons of icing sugar to 2 - 3 teaspoons of hot water and a couple of drops of food colouring. Mix until smooth. The consistency should be thick enough to spread on the biscuit but not runny enough so that it pours everywhere (similar in thickness to golden syrup). This quantity is enough for approximately 10 biscuits. I make pink, blue and yellow in three different teacups, as I find that my little girl finds it easier to hold something with a handle.
Place a teaspoon in each cup and let the little one spoon the icing onto the biscuit. Use the back of the spoon to spread it around if needed. Then let them loose with sprinkles, sweets or chocolate chips.
Yummy!
