Once he gets whisking down he'll be able to make scrambled eggs by himself :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357741 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 09:26:11 +0000 Alivoo01 2357741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. DS is 2 and will stand in his learning tower and watch us cook, or play with utensils and his own pots and pans next to us. Which is fine with us right now since we're normally in a rush to make dinner and don't really have time to walk him through the process. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357669 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 08:38:08 +0000 regberadaisy 2357669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! She loves to be in the kitchen with us. Some of the things she does is cut vegetables, pour ingredients, crack eggs, mix, roll dough / make pizza. She can pretty much help with anything but be near the stove or touch raw meat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357581 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 23:03:02 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 2357581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, he's been "helping" since he was about 2 or so. He used to just stand there and nibble bits of food while we cooked or baked, but now he pours, stirs, adds spices, gathers ingredients, and is learning how to chop some things (he's a little over 3). He also likes to "do the dishes", which is basically just playing in the soapy water :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357575 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 22:53:59 +0000 Corduroy 2357575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO (2.5) helps me most nights. She loves drying greens in the spinner, sprinkling with salt, basting with a silicone brush, peeling garlic (she could do that forever and accomplish nothing). When I can't think of anything for her I have her put forks on the table. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357571 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 22:42:00 +0000 jhd 2357571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How cute!!</p> <p>LO is 18 months, but I let him help me make strawberry pancakes a couple of weeks ago and he was SO excited. And he ate well too. This reminds me we need to do that again asap. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-you-toddler-help-in-the-kitchen#post-2357554 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 22:15:23 +0000 MaisyMay 2357554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo is nearly 3 and loves to help me cook. We were making meatloaf for dinner to have one night this week and she was helping mixing everything for me. What does your lo like to help you with? </p> [attach=407/15/nxw11n.337x600.20151115_190926.jpg]
