I cook for with the help of two two 1/2 year old twin boys every day. They can't eat their pasta without freshly grated parm reg being grated over their pasta. They use the pepper mill. They whisk eggs, make pasta, and roll out pizza dough. They have a real keen interest in the whole process and my viewpoint is the "process" is just as important as end result. It's the time you can spend time with kids, encouraging fine motor skills, math, good health and relationships at home. It's beneficial on so many levels. I'll add you to my blog roll.

She loves helping to create things in the kitchen, and she's a much more adventurous eater because of it. She's not afraid to try something new (most of the time.) And really appreciates fresh ingredients and food with flavor. She can tell the difference between our home-made pesto and store bought, and our home-made turkey meatballs and others. She get's that home-made food, with good ingredients tastes better! Even when things don't go as planned, she still learns something, and can appreciate the experience, like our truffle cookies, http://whatscookingkris.blogspot.com/search/label/cookies they were a disaster, and she was such a good sport. I've even converted some of her incredibly picky friends. Sometimes it's all in the presentation. My daughter and I love cooking and baking together.

Justin cracked an egg perfectly and dumped it into the bowl, handing me two intact halves of shell. James agreed it was OK to substitute homemade pumpkin puree for most of the oil as a "secret ingredient". They are getting to be so much fun! Today, I made brownies with my 4 1/2 year old twin boys.

Now if a 9-year-old bakes totally on his own, who's to complain that his supper is chocolate cake? I'll ask my 7-year-old daughter if I can photograph her while she cooks. I like your idea!
