Children learn best by observing and doing things.

Our only son says he likes to be a chef so he constantly bugs asks me to let him help in the kitchen.

I know I should encourage him to do so but you know how it is with children and kitchen. Anyway, when we decided to finally open that box of Jell-o No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake, he offered to do the crust.

It seemed an easy task for him to mix the butter, sugar and crust mix. Whatever stray food particle that got on his fingers, these were licked. He is 8yo, what do we expect? :D I had no worries for the mess because he took care of it ;)

Hmmm…maybe he can do the Oreo Cheesecake with his elder sister while I finish reading an unfinished article about rv insurance.

Oh by the way, this is the finished product :)

Ola Julie! Wishing you and your family a Happy New year :)

My son Luis also helps me when I try to make those instant cakes. Just add eggs, water, and so on. He’s also the one in charge of operating the mixer, and if I don’t watch him, he’d probably have all the contents flying all over the kitchen (he would just love the chance to set it to high) lolz.
