Cooking with Kids

I am pretty sure that many of us have either seen or at least heard of the hit situation comedy "Married with Kids" that dominated television for quite a few years and is still shown in syndication in many markets all over the world. A few fantastic insights that are shown by this often dysfunctional household and a few pearls to bring into your every day lives. The same can be said When we think of cooking with kids.

There is little on this world that can teach you about yourself and the way your kids view you as easily as cooking with your kids. Of course, this is the perfect chance for many of us to let our hair down a little, relax, and have fun in the kitchen. Regrettably, if you are anything like me, this is a difficult procedure to say the least. I am a bit of a control freak in my kitchen. It is my domain or sovereign territory so to speak. For this reason it is difficult to give up that little bit of control and hand over the reigns to any one of my kids.

But then, I know they are learning important skills that they honestly need to know in life. This knowledge of course doesn't make it any less difficult when I'm scraping tomato sauce out of places I would never have thought to find out it on my own. If you are considering cooking with kids you need to make sure that you have the right ingredients on hand before beginning. You surely do not want to be caught without that cup plenty of patience you will be requiring nor do you wish to need to leave in the middle of things for a run to the local grocery to pick up the missing ingredients.

The other great guideline When we think of cooking with kids is the KISS rule. Keep it simple silly. This rule will help out more than you ever realize. To start with, most kids have relatively short attention spans. While they want to learn and help mommy out, they also do not want to have enough time to get bored with the details. Use simple recipes when cooking with kids and your chances for success will be much greater than with overly complicated or ingredient intense recipes.

As if this wasn't enough to absorb the other very important rule When we think of cooking with kids is to clean as you go whenever possible. Trust me on this. While there is part of you who will want to postpone the task of cleaning the messes that are made until later, or wait till the end and only clean once, this allows the chance for messes to layer and compound themselves. Invariably clean throughout the procedure for the best possible outcomes. You should enlist your kids in the cleaning procedure as well. While it may be easier to do yourself, it is far more important to teach them the basics of cleaning as you go. Remember one day they will more than likely invade your kitchen while you're not looking.

Cooking with kids can be an incredible way to have a fun day if you are able to let go of the control that you too often hold over the kitchen. Give over the keys to your kingdom for a day of fun and frolicking among the flour and sugar and see just how many fantastic memories you can make with your kids all along.
