This is one of their favorite activities. We call it pretend baking. I give them each a bowl of flour, then I fill a cupcake tin with different spices and baking ingredients. I try to use spices and ingredients that are fragrant and different textures (cocoa, oatmeal, poppy seeds, cloves, dry rice, dry noodles, herbs, etc). They love using their little scoops to choose their spices and mix them into their bowls of flour. If I'm really feeling brave about a mess I let them add water to their mixtures.
