Simple Tasks for Kids in the Kitchen!!
even the little things matter...
Gather the ingredients. You can't make much of anything without your list of ingredients, read aloud what you need and let your child find it and line it up on the counter to get started.
Stirring and mixing are usually among the first things kids learn to do in the kitchen. Get out the big wooden spoons and mixing bowls and let them mix the potato salad, macaroni and cheese, cake batter, whatever it is that needs stirring tonight.
Measuring generally comes next. Plastic measuring cups with big easy to read numbers are helpful here. Remember to show them how to get an accurate measurement by placing the cup on the counter and looking at eye level. What's funny here is that kids actually measure more accurately than adults pretty often when measuring in this way!
Cut it up! If you're child is much younger and not ready to handle a knife yet they can still get involved with the cutting up of ingredients. Get out the rolling pizza cutter and a cutting board and let them make rolling cuts. They'll feel a great sense of accomplishment and pride for helping in this way.

Snack Time!
the best time to get the kids involved
Cooking and food preparation doesn't have to involved the stove all the time after all. Let them make a vegetable tray with dip, a simple fruit salad, ants on a log, lunch meat snack wrap ups and all sorts of other great snacks that can be easily prepared.
