Cooking Time With Family


Cooking with children is a great way to spend some quality time with them while passing on your cooking expertise. Some reminders when starting your kids out:


Plan it

Before beginning, read the recipe together and prepare all the ingredients. Remind your kids to put away ingredients after using them so you can keep track of what you already put in!

Cook Wear

Remember to tell your kids not to wear anything they don’t want splattered with sauce! Make sure they put on aprons, tie their hair back and remove their jewelry and watches.

Be Patient

When starting your cooking lessons, remember to be patient. Your kids will learn even more if they try things for themselves, like handling vegetables or pouring batter into a pan.

Supervise them closely

Never leave your kids unattended. Keep an eye on them, especially when they’re using kitchen utensils, electric appliances and the stove.

Kitchen Safety

To be safe, tell your kids to always wear oven mitts when handling hot pans. Remind them to turn pot handles to the side (so they don’t get accidentally knocked over) and away from other burners (so they don't burn anyone). Lastly, make sure all appliances are turned off and unplugged before leaving the kitchen.
