This is one of my favourite sets of cookie cutters - it has 7 Fall Themed Cookie Cutters including 3 leaves, pumpkin and acorn which you can use to create your own sugar cookies. A lot of the recipes above and even our own cinnamon leaf refrigerator cookies use this or a similar set which is no longer in stock.
Although it is possible for children to use adult's kitchen accessories it is more difficult the younger they are. This is why we have a set of children's cookware which includes safety knives and utensils designed to be held in small hands.
I found this kitchen helper stool very useful when my children were young - it is height adjustable and makes baking beside me at the kitchen surface much safer than my first solution which was standing on one of the dining room chairs. It is a little bit of investment but I was then able to sell it on when they were taller in a local selling group for a good portion of the money I spent on it.
