Cooking with Preschoolers

In the Exchange publication, The Wonder of It: Exploring How the World Works, Bonnie Neugebauer offers these points to keep in mind in her chapter, "Cooking with Preschoolers (or Julia Child Had to Start Somewhere)"...

1.  The child will be only able to focus on one step at a time.
2.  Each ingredient should be wonderful to explore.
3.  The recipe must be flexible to allow for inaccurate counting and measuring.
4.  There must be potential for experimentation and growth -- there should be a recipe with both pictures and print.
5.  A routine must be established which will be followed throughout the year.
6.  The recipe must involve action.  Each child must be able to act.  There must be sufficient ingredients and utensils.
7.  Because the child is unable to follow the transformation process, there should be no baking involved.
