Cooking With Your Kids:

Nurturing Your Child’s “Inner Chef”

by Desiree Faerychild

In order to get our children

interested in eating nutritional

food, we should allow our

munchkins to cook with us at an

early age. Chances are, if a parent

is especially culinarily inclined,

some of this inspiration will be

naturally passed on to the child,

simply as a matter of enthusiasm,

ritual and interest. But if you have

a true protégé on your hands, you

may find yourself wondering if

you’re essentially up to the task.

Fundamentally, the education of

cooking begins with the study

of food, this is a very broad

subject, but it is also an important

foundation. You may be concerned

about kitchen safety, but that

is only one aspect of cooking

which your child will need to learn

about. There are plenty of things

to keep him involved, to help him

learn and absorb an abundance

of information; all the while

remaining safe and burn free.

The Source:

For a start, take your aspiring chef

to the place where it all begins.

Many farms, pumpkin patches,

orchards, you-pick’s and even

certain food processing factories
