Kids in the Kitchen
Some experts serve up some of the factors that make cooking with kids a pleasure rather than a struggle.
1
For obvious reasons,a grown-up needs to be in charge of the stove,sharp knives and electrical equipment.Dr.Colker advises parents to be watchful,even when their kids are involved in relatively safe tasks.The bottom line is to stay close by,and teach your kids to respect basic safety rules.
Leave Time
2 When kids help,you’ll need extra time to teach them some skills.When you’re in a hurry,give your kids tasks that don’t require much guidance.As they get older and develop more skills,they will become wonderful helpers and even save your time!
Go for Variety
Our experts agree that children can enjoy more than the usual“kid food”,such as chicken nuggets and pizza. 3 Sandra K.Nissenberg suggests exploring the produce passage in the supermarket and talking about the unusual fruit and vegetables you find.
Involve Kids in Clean-up and Table-setting
Dr.Laura Colker reminds parents that preschoolers are eager to deal with grown-up tasks.They actually “enjoy the clean-up and table-setting activities”,she says. 4
They may also enjoy setting the table and counting the spoons.
Make Cooking a Learning Adventure
Cooking helps kids develop a healthy interest in the lifelong challenge of eating nourishing(有营养的),delicious meals.Kids learn about science when they heat or cool a mixture and observe how it changes. 5 And as they wait for the timer to ring,they develop a better understanding of the concept of time.
A.Stay Equipped
B.Keep an Eye on Safety
C.Cooking with young children requires patience.
D.Measuring ingredients teaches kids about fractions(分数).
E.Kids can and should help wash and dry the pots and pans.
F.Most young children can easily handle simple kitchen equipment.
G.To introduce new foods,involve your kids in menu planning and shopping.
