Teaching Kids How To Enjoy Cooking Meals
My son who is only six years old, loves being in the kitchen. My eldest, not so much. But my youngest is actually excited about learning simple dish preparations and finds it quite entertaining. After preparing a meal, he gets so excited when he tells his brother or dad that he did it. So what do I do as a mom when my kids show interest in something? I allow them to explore it, to learn more about it, and to understand the process it takes to make these delicious meals for the family. Are your kids also excited about preparing meals with you?

If I were to guess what was one of the most problematic areas for parents before the age of 5, I would say it’s mealtime struggles. The “mealtime blues” I call it! The humdrum moment of trying to figure out what your toddler will eat and if they will actually sit and eat what you give them. Mealtime struggles can be quite a challenge for many parents, especially children before the age of 5. We tend to spend time preparing the meals only to find out that they will say NO and may…
