Amazing! My kids like to help me in the kitchen but I haven't put them in charge yet. We'll be there soon – keep posting your "Kids Cook" recipes!
Wow! Your kids did a fabulous job – can I please hire them to come over here one night?!
I can't wait until my kids are old enough. My 6 year old daughter desperately wants to do this, but she is VERY limited still about what she can do. The first time she tried to make grilled cheese (of course supervised) she burned her arm 🙁
WOW. I absolutely LOVE this post.
I must do more/teach my kids more.
I blame my mother. She taught me nothing..more like what NOT to do!
Wow! So proud of your kids and of you for encouraging them. I find the letting go of control part difficult 🙂
That is awesome! I cannot wait to do this mine! A brilliant idea! 😉
Great to see your starting your kids off young in the kitchen. My parents started me cooking at the age of 5 on a chair making bacon and eggs. Good skills to learn young.
I dont' know how many others i've heard from that don't know how to cook.
Anyhoo just stopping by from the canuck forum.
