[quote=Anonymous]3rd grade is old enough to make simple lunches like slapping together a sandwich. But if he has limited practice in the kitchen, I would start slowly. I don't recall when I started making lunches but I definitely did it by the time I was in 6th grade. Making lunches and doing types of chores are relative to each family's circumstances. I remember my mom telling me that she started cooking and ironing by the time she was 6 years old. I'm not sure if all kids could/would do this. But her mom thought she could do it. She is from another country and this is after a war. Her father was killed and her mom had to go to work leaving her with a younger sister. [/quote]
