Pizza Project
August and I both had a thoroughly enjoyable time making pizza together tonight. It's the perfect project for a 2-year-old: the tactile dough, the spreading, the sprinkling, the tasting of everything (since everything but the dough has already been cooked). He loves pizza, so he'll even eat vegetables on it. He spent a lot of the assembling time picking the larger pieces of tomato out of the sauce and eating them.
I use a frozen pizza dough, and we just patted and poked the dough into shape right on the pan we baked it on. Spread on sauce, sprinkle on cheese, put on toppings, then add more cheese and grate some Romano. Bake on a lower rack, 450 degrees or so, 15 minutes or so. Slice. Eat.
