heartWe took sugar cookie dough that I purchased out of the refrigerator Activities at the grocery store.  (or you can make your own)

We cut it into 1/4' slices.

Then we took an egg white and mixed red food coloring in it.  (or blue for father's day)

The kids "fingerpainted" hearts onto the cookies.
(make one fingerprint at an angle and then make a second fingerprint at the opposite angle -- see pictures below)

print 1  print 2

Then we lightly sprinkled the cookies with red sprinkles (or blue for father's day).

Even my 2 month old could do this with supervision. He loved it.
