Home My WebLink AboutThe Citizen, 2007-12-20, Page 38We asked the Grade 1 students at East Wawanosh Public School... What is your favourite Christmas cookie and how would you make it? “I like gingerbread cookies. You’d have to get the dough, the icing and cookie cutters and sprinkles and then cook them. I like the ones that are shaped like people and stars and angels and all different colours. It would probably take about 15 minutes.” - Sidney “Peanut butter cookies. We just eat them on Christmas. I’d put chocolate chips in them. To make them it would probably take about 40 minutes in the oven.” - Julia “Probably chocolate chip cookies, even though we have them all the time. Those are the same ones that we leave out for Santa” - Ethan “I like the ones that look like Santa. I’d want to put chocolate chips on them.” - Prestin “All of them.” - Brock “I like the gingerbread ones, the ones with the Santa pictures on them. I don’t think I would change them, they’re good the way they are.” - Teegan “I like the chocolate chip cookies, but I eat them all the time. They taste better at Christmas though. Last year we put out the green ones for Santa, the ones that you make with the green icing and food stuff. We got better presents because they were good. First you’d have to flatten them out and put in some sprinkles and chips and dry it up before they cook. It should take about seven hours.” - Paige “I like the Santa gingerbread cookies. I like them because they’re sweet. I think if I was going to put anything else on them, I’d put gum drops. It would probably take about an hour to cook.” - Blake “I like the gingerbread cookies with Santa on it. I like to lick the icing off them. They’d probably take six or seven minutes to cook.” - Jazmin “I like the Santa chocolate chip cookies. I like them because they look like Santa. I think they’d take like five minutes. I’d have to make them in the microwave because I can’t use the oven.” - Alicia “I like the cookies with Santa on them. I like Santa and the icing tastes good. If it was up to me, I’d put some chocolate chips in them, and carrots and milk.” - Melanie “I like Oreos. Those are the same ones I leave for Santa. I think he likesthem.” - Emily“I like oatmeal cookies, becausethey’re good. I think the raisins makethem Christmasy.” - Ryan “Probably chocolate chip cookies, but with lots of chocolate. Those are the ones that we leave for Santa. If I was going to make them, I’d put more chocolate in them and maybe some gummy bears and sprinkles and potato chips. I think they’d take about eight hours to cook.” - Jerry “I like the gingerbread trees. They have more sprinkles than the other ones. We don’t have a cookie that we always leave for Santa, we leave him something different every year. But I think when we leave him better cookies, we get better presents.” - Rylan “I like chocolate chip, maybe with some sprinkles and gummy bears though.” - Tia “I like the Santa Claus cookies because they taste good. I think maybe I’d put some Smarties in them and some chocolate chips.” - Chris PAGE B6. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 2007.
