Cooking is a great way to reinforce their math skills and, for me, it's been imperative that my kids' palates become discerning early on.
Here's Chef Riley after he decided on his menu, making a roux for his cream sauce, and very satisfied with the result.
Granted we've had to work on tact, I remember - in complete horror - when, at an Asian-themed birthday party, my child announced loudly, "We don't eat white rice. Do you have any brown rice?" But I am proud of my mini-chefs.
Tonight Riley decided that he wanted to make dinner. On his menu: Macaroni and Cheese, which was really whole wheat penne with a parmesan cream sauce, served with sauteed zucchini.

wow.. Great job Riley! I need to expand Jaeson's palate..
ReplyDeleteThanks, Susan. Riley does great pastas and can whip up a mean chicken curry. It takes more prep on my part, but they love being in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteWow! Thanks for sharing as always.
