A really fun activity to do with children is to make some homemade peanut butter. Most children love peanut butter anyway so this will surely be a fun activity for them to do.
Begin by washing every one’s hands and then shelling some peanuts. You may need quite a few peanuts to make enough peanut butter depending on how many children or how big your family is. Toss the shelled peanuts in one bowl and the shells in another for easy clean up.
When all the peanuts have been shelled, add them to the blender. Then add some oil. For every cup of peanuts used, you will need one to two tablespoons of oil. Blend away. You can decide if you want crunchy peanut butter or smooth peanut butter. If some children want crunchy and others want smooth, then blend until it is chunky then take some out and blend the rest to be smooth. Children will love helping with this activitity.
