Cooking With Kids

Cooking With Kids is an awesome activity. It’s a great way to teach children essential skills that they will use through out their lives. It teaches them about healthy meals. Plus it gets them involved with food which is a great way to give them some control over what they eat.

All of my kids love cooking. Even my two year old twins get involved. Sebastian is very good at giving me directions and telling me when I’m doing it wrong. Cooking with kids doesn’t have to be a special event, you can just let them contribute to whatever you’re cooking. Even two year olds can do some “mix, mix, mixing!”
