And its fun teaching kids especially when you see them so eager to learn. Honestly speaking children are easy to teach than grown ups. hahahaha! I can say this because i have taught my niece whom i raised to cook and bake. I started teaching her when she was 4yrs old. She is now 13yrs old and she can bake her own cookies and cakes. The funny thing there is, once some college students of mine when to my house and taught them how to bake. My niece said, "mama, how come they work that way? they are not organized and they are so messy...... look mama they don't know how to bake. How come i can?" she even said that in a loud voice. Nica was only 7 or 8yrs old back then when that happened. My college students were so embarassed. And funny thing there was my niece was the one who taught them some other recipes. Now one of my chefs uniform is now her uniform when she bakes at home. Parents, godparents, aunties or uncle, brothers or sister... encourage small kids to bake with you. Allow them to enjoy these things. In the long run you are teaching them to be more creative and to be more diciplined. hi, i totally agree with you.
