My daughters aged 5 and 6. today took 8 eggs out from refrigerator. added spices to make Indian style omelette.
Then called me to cook.
I was happy on one side that girls has getting big. on the other hand I was in worry, they have messed up so many things. kitchen was in bad shape more over I make omelette for them with maximum 2 eggs each or boiled eggs.
I have stopped eating eggs from quite some time. but for kids I generally bring.
How to keep this under my track......
...as they are very young..... and ....not ready for cooking

Aww that's so sweet, but too young for kitchen now, tell them to visit and watch while you are cooking.

They sneaked away, I was doing my work on my laptop....generally I am the one they ask if they want to have something to eat.

@spaceseed fortunately they called you to cook the eggs. They are too young to use the stove

Nice that they want to be responsible by helping out but I too would worry about them using the stove.

5-6 is not age I think ..........its tooo early I think. though they have learnt how to make sandwitch in there school , taught by teachers, but I am affraid taking sharp knife and cooking gas.... at kitchen is too risky.

Yeah...Actually, sharing your kitchen with them encourages their interest in food. It’s also a fun way to encourage healthy eating habits and skills for life.Don't worry...It helps to build their vocabulary skill.For example, when you read a recipe together.Also maths skill when measuring liquid in a jug.
Also advise them that they should not cook or try anything new without your presence...Hope this helps

Get a helper to watch them or maybe you just have to bear and watch them yourself cos they will certainly grow past it someday.

I suppose with budding chefs a little mess is expected! At least they take an interest in cooking. A good sign of better things to come!

You will be pleased one day when they can really cook - and without leaving a mess. So it's good if you can also put up with their efforts at the moment.

It's good that it seems that you are enjoying some cooking.
