[quote=Anonymous]He sits on the counter while I cook and his level of "assistance" varies but I always let him feel like he's doing something (even if its just taking out all the k-cups from the stand and putting them all back in while I'm actually cooking). "Dumping" stuff is usually an easy way to help, i.e., dumping pre-measured ingredients into bowls or pots. I let him stir things that aren't on the stove. He watches me chop or cook saute things and that's a good time to talk about why only grown ups are allowed to do it. Sometimes I'll fill a bowl with a bit of water and let him use teaspoons to dump it into another bowl to keep him occupied.[/quote]
