My kids absolutely love helping in the kitchen! Sure, it takes a little longer and it's messier - but it's a great way to work on skills like responsibility, independence, math and fine motor. Over the years I've incorporated some items that my kids have all really enjoyed using in the kitchen. See my favorites below:
Kids plastic knives - works well for a variety if ages (even my 1 year old likes to use)
Grape cutter - this one is such a time saver
Crinkle cutter - great for cutting harder items, and makes slippery items easy to grasp
Learning tower stool - I love this one, handmade by a small business in Ukraine
Mini wood cutting boards - I love these mini boards from IKEA
Happy cooking!
