The time invested in teaching Nicholas how to cook is time well spent. I love these moments with him. I have so many sweet memories of being in the kitchen with my mom and grandma, and I want Nicholas to have those same sweet memories for him to look back on. I am fully cherishing moments like this because one day soon, he won’t need his toddler tower to reach the top of the countertops to cook. He’ll be this grown independent boy cooking meals on his own. Don’t rush their growing up years! I know first hand how quick time flies. curiouschef makes the perfect tools specifically geared towards little hands. We recently purchased Nicholas is own fruit and vegetable peeler and it has worked so much better than the one I have for myself. He loves peeling all carrots, which is totally fine since we eat a lot of it. 🥕 *His toddler tower was purchased from etsy. .

Taught this little sweetie how to dice today! She was definitely loving the curious chef stuff. She diced, learned how to use the mortar and pestle, and helped me make 3 dozen strawberry ice cubes for our lemonade!!! 🍓🍋🥣 ⁣

I always have the best of intentions when it comes to getting Emily in the kitchen with me. But by time to cook dinner I am normally exhausted and need to not take three time as long to get it done. I know, I know, that sounds horrible but it’s true! To combat that I have taken a few simple steps to get her in the kitchen more while still maintaining my sanity. Since I know I can’t be the only one in this situation I am going to share my tips with you over on the blog today.

The cutest little chef there ever was! Maclin has been talking about making muffins for days so today he helped me.... excuse me, I helped him make blueberry muffins 😉
He has been loving helping out in the kitchen ever since he got his curiouschef chef kit, knives and the measuring cup that has 3 pour spouts so it’s perfect for your littles no matter which hand they use. If they’re like Mac they switch up the dominant hand! He had to take a nap after they went in the oven but he asked that I not eat one until he gets up and has one too 😂
If you have a little one that loves helping out in the kitchen check out curiouschef they have the best kid safe kitchen gadgets!!

They want to create in the kitchen. I dreamed of this day, and yet, I have to work hard to embrace it fully. Why? Sometimes I dread the extra mess or extra time needed to involve young cooks. Sometimes it's knowing we have to eat whatever they've created, good or bad, since we don't do food waste. Sometimes I just don't want to eat something stirred with licked and dropped spoons. But mostly because it's 4-on-1 when I'm just trying to get food on the table.
But it's also beautiful! They want to create, to nourish each other, to explore the food they've helped grow. Today the request to make dinner felt like it was going to be the last straw, but instead it was the redeaming turn. Yes, the kitchen was a wreck. Yes, dinner was at 3:30. Yes, it was called "Hot Lasagna Salad." Yes, I'm sure there was spoon-licking. But they beamed with pride. It was pretty good too.
Worth sharing:
1) These knives from #curiouschef were in the girls' stockings this year and they have been amazing! Kid friendly knives that get the job done well.
2) My kids will eat almost anything that they've picked or cooked themselves. After sharing disgust, I can remind them it's the kale they grew and picked and at second try, they love it. I don't know if this is ubiquitous in all homes, but it's reason enough to keep them gardening here. .

My little helper 😍
. I strongly believe in involving kids in daily chores from very early age itself. I knew nothing about cooking and but had an excellent house keeping skills when we started a life alone in the USA. And Aneesh knew nothing too 😅 We struggled and learned everything from trial and error. So I promised myself that I will teach my kids all the basic life skills first before teaching them numbers or letters. Involving kids in daily chores can make our work slow and we need a lot of patience. Since I'm a stay at home mom and I'm taking care of Akkudu all by myself during day time, Akkudu accompanies me in everything I do. He loves being in kitchen and playing with utensils and vegetables. He observes me so well and already helps me a lot. Also he loves doing laundry and reminds me to take clothes out from dryer and asks me to fold it too 😅
. Some simple tasks he helps us with very seriously are opening the blinds in the morning and closing them in the evening, putting his clothes in laundry basket, folding his socks, loading the washing machine, transferring clothes from washer to dryer, helping me unload the dishwasher and mixing and pouring idly batter etc and he is always strictly supervised. I'm a short person who needs stepstool to reach almost all the shelves in our home. One day I was trying to water my plants in the kitchen windwsill in my tiptoes. Akkudu saw it and got me his stepstool 😍 When he sees me wiping the kitchen countertops, he will pick up a towel and joins me without even asking. He acts responsible and is very considerate. I truly believe this is because he is very much involved in our daily chores. When ever I post a video of Akkudu helping me I get some messages labelling it as "child labor". They might be being funny but I find it so strange. Anyway all his helping videos are saved in my highlights under "Chores" and "LilChef" ☺️
. Akkudu, can't thank you enough for making no fuss about this quarantined life for past 5 weeks! #mylilhelper #mammasboy #ammoluandakkudu
