[quote=Anonymous]If they've been taught what to do and how to be safe about it, it's fine. My 7 year old boys often cook eggs on the gas stove while I'm not there. I started cooking with them when they were about 3, so they've worked up to it. They can also safely use a sharp knife, although they use knives with rounded tips. I will admit that they once set the toaster oven on fire one Saturday morning. But they put it out; they knew how because I had gone over with them what to do. I only heard about it afterwards. Bet it never happens again. Kids are capable of more than we give them credit for.[/quote]
