One day Minecrafters will take over the world. What is Minecraft? From what I have been able to learn from my daughter and her friends; it’s a virtual world where children are afforded the opportunity to build their own communities, worlds and lives. They learn skills of negotiation, survival, planning and have an awful lot of fun in the process. Sure there are a few zombies and some talk of death and icky stuff in the survival mode, but in the creative mode the parameter’s of this game are limitless and astounding.
Most recently my daughter and her BFF took the world of Minecraft outside of the computer. They grabbed a box of Rice Krispies and created some pretty awesome “Minecraft Creeper Cookies”. The documented the entire baking process on video, and uploaded it.
I was all kinds of proud.
Want to make two young self proclaimed “geekly chic nerd girls” extremely happy. Give this video a watch, and maybe even subscribe to their channel! Then picture them jumping up and down every single time they get a new click, because they will.
Thanks.

I understand that completely. My Hubby often plays with my daughter, it really is a game for all ages 🙂

So so so amazing! Your girls are kind of brilliant!

That’s awesome! I feel like my best friend and I would have gotten up to things like that if things like video recorders were commonplace and youtube existed when we were growing up. Well done, ladies! That’s a fantastic how-to video!
Stephanie says
To be honest my girls amaze me and make me feel a bit old! In just a few minutes they can effortlessly pull together footage for a video and make it work. Takes me forever. Hmm the first sign of age? I’m with you, back in the day, my BFF and I would have done exactly this kind of thing.

Awesomeness!!! Super impressive video. How fun! My child has just recently discovered the wonderful world of Mindcraft and would go crazy over these treats. She just spent part of her Saturday playing the game, acting it out in a friend’s backyard, and shopping for Mindcraft Ts (Justice has them for girls, FYI 🙂
What a great idea, girls!!!
Stephanie says
Ohh thank YOU for the tip! I had no idea you could find Minecraft T’s for girls at Justice. Must keep that in mind for Christmas.
