Kid-Friendly Cookies

These kid friendly cookie recipes are simple, colorful, and just plain fun to make. Most start with an easy sugar cookie base and are perfect for decorating with sprinkles, icing, or sanding sugar. The designs are pretty without being complicated, which means kids can help and still feel proud of what they made. Whether you are baking for a holiday, a classroom party, or a weekend treat, these cookies are made to sparkle.

Favorites in this collection include my Irish Shamrock Sugar Cookies, Christmas Tree Sugar Cookies, and 4th of July Lemon Sugar Cookies. From bright green sparkle to festive trees and colorful citrus cookies, each recipe uses simple decorating techniques with sprinkles or easy icing so kids can join in without complicated steps.
