Make a Surprise Swirl Cake
Sensory stimulation through the touch of the dough and smell of the cake makes baking a great activity for Valentine's day. Get creative with colour by making a swirl cake that will also strengthen balance when standing ... not to mention the arm workout when mixing ingredients!
