Your nieces (and nephews) love to bake. In fact, it's one of the activities they enjoy the most with you.

Savvy Aunties have two options: They can eat the cookies and brownies that the kids make which will push that diet off another day, OR they can encourage kids to wrap up those baked goods and bring them over to someone who could use a little surprise sweetness in their life.

Is a cousin going through exams and could use a cookie break? Is Grandma feeling a little lonely? Is it Dad's birthday? What about that neighbor down the street who is always giving the kids a treat? Could she use a little treat herself?

Doing something nice is always a good thing. Giving a delicious treat to someone who least expects it is just the sweetest thing.
