Cinnamon Rolls
225ml milk
75g butter
425g plain flour
70g caster sugar
10g fast active yeast
1 egg, beaten
For the filling
100g butter
65g caster sugar

1- Heat the milk and margarine in a saucepan until nearly boiling, turn of heat and leave to cool.
2- Mix together the flour, sugar and yeast.
3- Add the egg and warm milk (not hot) to the dry ingredients and mix well.
4- Cover the bowl, I usually place a large plate over the top, leave to rise for at least an hour.
5- Mix all the filling ingredients together.
6- roll out the dough to form a rectangle about 25 cm by 40cm, spread the filling over it and roll it up
7- Cut your roll into several equal slices and place in a tin, not tightly packed as they need room to rise.
8- Cover and leave to rise until double in size.
9- Glaze with milk and sprinkle with some caster sugar.
10- Bake Gas 6 for about 25 minutes, rolls are cooked when they sound hollow when you tap the base.

Yesterday we enjoyed watching Elf as our Christmas film and then we read The Little Fir Tree, then we made some Christmas tree decorations.
I put together 3 green lolly pop sticks, then they stuck a green triangle of kite paper on the back and set about decorating them. Towards the end they asked for presents to put under the tree, I thought they meant that at Christmas time they had presents under their trees. Then realised that they were asking for presents for the trees they were making, they had remembered that earlier in the week we had used foam stickers that had presents in them. So we rummaged through the box till they found the ones they wanted to add to their trees. We also made some Rudolphs using lolly pop sticks, I just need to attach some ribbon to them so the children can hang them on their trees
My little ones really love playing with the baby dolls, it is something they have out every day, they love to create little rooms for them, this is one they made yesterday, I love it.
We have also made some window stars, planning on making a few to decorate our windows.
