While it may not always be convenient for kids to help with the preparation of meals, they shouldn’t be entirely excluded from the kitchen. There are many learning (and bonding) opportunities to be had, not to mention the gaining of some real life skills to encourage a love of cooking in your mini chefs.
Naturally you must ensure safety in the kitchen and guide them in the process as they develop with age appropriate tasks. Cooking builds confidence and a sense of accomplishment. Kids love helping out as it feels good, and there’s definitely value in that — and your kids could eventually be a big help in (and outside of) the kitchen.
For extra practice with cooking (and no extra messes to clean up!), children (ages 3 to 12) can join cooking classes in Bangkok, either at camps or weekend/after-school sessions. Lucky for us there are many great cooking schools offering opportunities to become the next master chef!
