With flour & spaghetti sauce all over the floor and constant pleading to lick the spoon or bowl, it‘s always been *easier* to have my kids out of the kitchen when I cooked or baked. It took some time for me to realize how important those moments in the kitchen really are and to remember that easier doesn’t always mean better.
I’ve been bringing my boys into the kitchen with me for nearly every meal now and it has been such a joy.
Our sweet friends up the street, @italyfromscratch, had us over for a pasta-making night, and the kids had sooo much fun. It was definitely a bonding moment for all of us as they learned how to roll the dough.
The kitchen is often referred to as the heart of the home, and for good reason. It’s where delicious meals are prepared, memories are made, and culinary creativity comes to life. It strengthens family bonds, cultivates important life skills, broadens palates, boosts confidence, and nurtures creativity. So, the next time you’re in the kitchen, consider extending an invitation to your little ones. Embrace the mess, embrace the laughter, and create a space where lifelong memories and a love for food can flourish. Together, you’ll embark on a culinary adventure that will leave a lasting impression on both your children and you. Happy cooking!
