I agree that children learn by doing things themselves, not by being told or by seeing. Many parents do not like their child\’s food experiences. They are concerned that their young child may make the kitchen and herself/himself messy. It may be easier to send their child off to play while they are cooking. However, children can get a lot of benefits from food experiences such as science, basic math, healthy food choices, confidence, memory with their parents, and so forth. Hence, let children beneft from food experience.

I have one 5 yr old boy here who always has to help with everything-especially the cooking and dish washing. His mom is a teacher and he helps her with baking at home. I let him help, but we do the eggs separately. The main problem teaching eggs is how to get them not to smash their thumbs so hard in the egg. I\’m sure as they get older, it gets better. I remember how long it takes to master those shells!!
