Angus is a bit of a beast with everything he does, so instead of letting him make the kitchen look like a hurricane hit, I pull up a tall chair for him to watch from :) He likes that a lot - when he's a little less 'Bull in a Chinashop' I'll get him to help add things and mix n' stuff.

Merry Christmas!!

I have a two year old I am raising. He loves to help in the kitchen. There is always something He is good at doing like measuring flour or cracking eggs or putting the perfect snowflake on the cookies. I hope he will have a love of cooking all of his life.

I wish every parent would take the time to teach their child how to cook. My parents had me in the kitchen helping as soon as I could walk. This is a great post, and a wonderful tradition.

That sounds like a fabulous experience for your little guy!
I just love the London Chef's new kitchen/cooking school/shop! Everytime I walk by I peek through the window or stop in the shop to see what's going on.
