OMG! this is the cutest thing i’ve seen in a long time!!! i cant wait to have kids of my own! i always regret that my mom didnt want me helping her in the kitchen because she thought it was unsafe when i was little. going back and trying to learn her techniques has been a challenge. shes a really great, creative cook.

im currently a nutrition/ dietetics student working towards my RD and at my university they offer summer culinary kids’ camps every week. and lemme tell you, those kids _learned_! it was so fun to watch 7-17yr olds (not all in the same groups) take away useful information on how to eat right, food safety, and experience things from places they never heard of. every day they focused on cuisine from a different country. with proper instruction, the kids were learning knife skills so that they could chop and dice with confidence the correct way that keeps their little fingers safe. it was so wonderful!

we’ve been doing this with antonio as well. i figure if he feels like he got to help make dinner, then he might be more motivated to eat it. his favorite way to help, by far, is to do the salad spinner. he likes to stir things for me too. i’m excited because kate just gave him a little apron with his name on it. my little chef!

Hi Grace, what a cutie you are My daughter is 13 now and we always had loads of fun cooking together and we still do. Not sure how this link back thing works, you might like to email me and explain, I’m still learning and still building my site with loads of good party food for kids. In my site I often say let the kids be involved with the party planning, they so love to be involved it makes them feel so important and grown up and we shouldn’t let our need for order stiop them from having fun. What better way to get them involved in their own party then letting them help with all the food preparation. As an adult I LOVE the anticipation created by preparing food for a big family do, and so do our kids. Enjoy them while they are young
