Staying away from the oven/stove was one of the first boundaries we really pushed. </p> Running Elley on "Are your kids good about staying away from the stove/oven while you cook?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-good-about-staying-away-from-the-stoveoven-while-you-cook#post-1306984 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 00:04:50 +0000 Running Elley 1306984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E helps me in the kitchen a lot and learned what "hot" was very early on. He stays away from the oven and doesn't touch the stove. It still really scares me though! </p> Freckles on "Are your kids good about staying away from the stove/oven while you cook?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-good-about-staying-away-from-the-stoveoven-while-you-cook#post-1306979 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 00:02:03 +0000 Freckles 1306979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We make sure the pan handles are always turned in, because one of my worst fears is her bringing down hot food (or worse, water) all over herself.</p> <p>When i'm opening the oven she stays away. We always make a big deal about "hot!" (which she understands) so she is good about keeping her distance. </p> skibobrown on "Are your kids good about staying away from the stove/oven while you cook?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-good-about-staying-away-from-the-stoveoven-while-you-cook#post-1306976 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 23:56:46 +0000 skibobrown 1306976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! By some miracle, "hot" was one of DD's first words, and she has a huge respect for things that we tell her are hot. She does the hot sign (lifts up her hands), says "ot", and won't go anywhere near it once we tell her something is hot. </p> mrbee on "Are your kids good about staying away from the stove/oven while you cook?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-good-about-staying-away-from-the-stoveoven-while-you-cook#post-1306933 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 23:37:18 +0000 mrbee 1306933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie's pretty good at it at this point (he's 4)... Olive is ok at it, but I constantly worry she'll pull a pan or pot down on her head!</p> <p>Are your kids good about staying away from the stove/oven while you cook? </p>
