[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old has been using a knife to cut things since he was 6. We supervise. His first knife was a hard plastic and we only had him cutting softer things, to get used to it. He has a kids Chef knife now and helps with fruit and vegetables but with supervision. He doesn't touch the stove yet but that is because he is not tall enough. I don't want him using a step stool around the stove, it strikes me as potentially dangerous. When he is tall enough to be able to stand and see what is happening we will start letting him use the stove. [/quote]
