Herbed Turmeric crackers

I do love entertaining and when I do, I bake and cook as much as I can manage to fit in. 

Recently I wanted to make some crackers to go on a platter with hummus. I tried an entirely different kind of cracker recipe I found and I didn’t like it so I started from scratch again and this time winged it in a different direction. The result was delicious so I remade them today and wrote my measurements out so I could share it with others. I made these ones with organic plain flour but I will be trying other flours in the future. They are vegan, quick and easy to make. 
You could even use cutters to create fancy shaped crackers. 😊



Herbed Turmeric Crackers
2 cups plain flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 1/2 tbsp ground turmeric
2 tsp coconut oil 
3/4 cup water

  • Preheat oven to 160°c
  • Combine flour, salt, basil, thyme and turmeric in a bowl.
  • Add coconut oil then water a little bit at a time to achieve your desired consistency (not too sticky).
  • Knead on a floured surface and roll thin.
  • Cut into even strips and then cut into even rectangles or shapes you’d prefer. 
  • Place on a lined tray and bake for around 30minutes until hard and beginning to go golden. Let cool






I hope you enjoy and if you make them, please tag me so I can see!

DIY finger labyrinth

Image
Regularly we will go on family labyrinth walks because (gratefully) there is a beautiful stone labyrinth in a nearby town that we often visit. They are so fascinating and universal through history and mythology across the globe. They have been found on amulets from ancient Egypt, Mycenaean seals, Etruscan vases, Native American paintings and on coins from Crete just to name a few.   Starting off activities for the letter L, I thought this was a great opportunity to create our own finger labyrinth for at home as they are such a beautiful spiritual tool and we are all about mindfulness. The fawns watched a couple videos on the history of labyrinths, how people build modern labyrinths and learnt a bit about what they mean to different cultures and religion. We had a look at the different forms in which labyrinths can take and chose to go with the classic labyrinth.  Using a smaller version with fewer circuits they placed rocks and crystals along the lines I had marked for them giving a go

Flying bird papercraft

Image
This bird papercraft is so easy to make and you can adjust it to make particular birds or let your imagination run wild to create your own unique bird.  What would need -Cardboard -Paper -String -Glue -Desired medium to decorate with -Small hole punch (or something pointy to create a hole - I used one of my craft tools) How to make it First draw out a bird body on the cardboard. It doesn’t need to be perfect, the only part you want to rule straight is the back so the wings sit right on it when attached. Optional to you but I cut out tails separately and glued them on before decoration so the bird body was the same for them all. Once you’re happy with your bird body, cut it out and trace it on the cardboard for multiple birds. I added a crest onto the cockatoo one before cutting it out. For the wings, fold a piece of paper in half and draw your wing shape, cut it out and open - there’s your wing! Just trace that on more paper and cut out for multiple birds. Remember it doesn’t have to b

DIY Willow bird nest

Image
This DIY bird nest is great for Spring lessons, play or seasonal displays. The fawns do love birds and I thought a fantastic activity would be an invitation for them to create their very own nests with a range of provided materials. As I've been inspired by nature crafts lately involving willow and weaving, I thought I would create a nest for them that we can use whenever we learn about birds, spring etc. This is my first time crafting with willow and I'm pretty happy with it. 😊 For their invitation to build a nest it will serve as an example prop.  Getting started, of course you will need some willow branches. How many will depend on the size of the nest you wish to create. Start with a handful. You can keep some of the leaves attached if you wish, I kept a few of the smallest ones on here and through out my nest. Some may come off during the weaving process.  Now I started from the top of the nest and worked my way down and in to the bottom. I haven't yet tried the other
