New Patch Column Up!

In this week's The Brookline Parent, I discuss how I started having Muffin and Squeaker help me in the kitchen and the types of tasks they like to help me with. Click to read Cooking with Kids.

Thanks for the inspiration! I've been thinking of letting H. help more in the kitchen but wasn't sure where to start. I like the dumping-in-ingredients idea. (You may want to chastise your spell-checker re: "flower" vs. "flour," BTW...)

I'm glad you like the idea; the girls really love participating, and this is something they can't get into too much trouble with. My mother tells me, as I mentioned in the column, that I started with the dumping-in-ingredients stage and then moved along, so it seemed a logical place to start.

And, in future, please send all typo reports directly to the Brookline Patch editor. His e-mail address is at the top of every Patch page.
