    Great lens! My kids love helping me with cook everything. Whenever they see me in the kitchen, they pull up a chair to the counter and ask, "What can I do?" I start letting them help around 16 months. It slows down the cooking process, but is instilling a love of cooking in all of them. Their favorite would definitely be any dessert because they know they get to eat something sweet after it's done!
