[quote=Anonymous]I’ll also add that even if they are baking, that’s positive progress. I baked a lot at that age. But it also taught me positive cooking skills. When you put a lot of effort into making something, you’re less likely to eat mindlessly. And you are also more aware of what is going into it. (Anyone that has ever made buttercream has had that “holy moly that’s a lot of sugar!” Moment). A lot of girls that age get very into baking, and it’s a good bridge to other types of cooking )plus math and chemistry skills). A lot of my nieces that were obsessed with baking cookies and cakes at age 12-13 are now excellent cooks that make a variety of healthy meals in their 20s and 30s. Of course if you can get her interested in cooking fish and vegetables that’s even better, but any from scratch cooking is positive progress for kids that are. [/quote]
