I found this article that offers some really great suggestions for how to make cooking and food fun for kids: https://www.campbells.com/kitchen/guide/kids/4-fun-cooking-games-kids/
Do you have any games or rituals you have with your kids around cooking or baking with your kids?
We have checked out different kids cookbooks and I let her pick any recipe she wants to try. Then we shop for the ingredients and make it.
Also when I am cooking, I try to think of something simple she can do to get her involved. For example, I taught her recently how to properly cut open, de-seed and scoop an avocado. Now she always makes our guacamole!
She also can measure out ingredients for me when I am preparing. And she loves to crack eggs-lol.
I am lucky, she is usually pretty willing to help out if I ask her to!
@jenwhitt These are great ideas! I think the more we ask them to be involved, the more they enjoy doing it (and hopefully eating the healthy stuff too!).
