As it's the run up to christmas why not add ground mixed spice or ground cinnamon.

what we find our children love is those very small paper cakecases - the tiny 'sweet' ones... when then have bits they can add like pasta shapes and they make 'chocolates and sweets' for everyone! The other one that goes down well - but you need to check for allegies - is old chocolate boxes with the plastic liners still in - a great counting and sharing activity.
