I studied catering and been a patient person I have got the skills to pass on to my kids and this is what I have done. </p>\n<p>I think as long as the child can understand what they are doing then any age is fine, they have just got to know that when the oven is hot IT IS HOT, and that knives are sharp. we don't want know accidents now do we. :D</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"p3jlpd79lx","appParentAuthor":"davsol","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
