One small act of kindness turned into a sweet memory for a single dad and his kids

The thoughtful idea came while she was baking several apple crumbles for friends and family.

Knowing her friend was always looking for activities to do with his two young children, she decided to put together a special “deconstructed” version of the dessert — complete with instructions and ingredients — so he and his kids could make it themselves.

“They absolutely loved it and it made my heart so happy,” she added.
