When it’s cold outside, warm up your home by baking some tasty treats! The Home Baking Association designates February as Bake for Family Fun Month.

Baking brings people together at home, in the classroom, or other community programs such as 4-H. The Home Baking Association has designed a 4-week lesson plan to help plan activities.

Week One – Learn the baking fundamentals. This helps build confidence and helps ensure a successful outcome in the weeks to come.

Week Two – Celebrate your favorite Valentine by baking a favorite treat such as heart-shaped cookies.

Week Three – Baking can honor generations of recipes and cultural traditions. You can explore your own family baking traditions along the way.

Week Four – Spread the joy of baking by sharing your treats with family, friends, neighbors, or those in need.
