Cooking School: Learning in the Kitchen
Having a pint-size sous chef "helping" you in the kitchen while you're racing to get dinner on the table isn't, at first blush, the greatest idea of all time. But your kid will love it, and with a little planning so will you. Will things get messy? Probably. But you'll be building a foundation for knowledge that will last long after the splatters are wiped away. "Young kids get so much out of being in the kitchen," explains Mollie Katzen, coauthor of the preschool cookbook Pretend Soup. "They develop dexterity through activities like kneading dough and cracking eggs. And they also get an educational boost in areas such as science, math, and language." So break out the aprons and let's get cooking!
