Busy Mom’s Survival Guide Podcast Episode 047.
My children all learn from a very early age how to cook. I teach them based on their individual maturity levels and abilities more than I do their calendar age.
By the time they are pre-teens, they are fully capable of following a recipe and making most meals.
This podcast series is broken down into 3 parts. During this first episode, I discuss the reasons why you should teach your children to cook. I also cover some of the safety rules with teaching children cooking skills. And then I give you an idea of some of the tasks my children are able to handle in the kitchen at different ages.
