Is that Wolfgang Puck working up a sweat in the kidkraft kitchen? Or is that just my kid working on his gourmet skills? All this talk is making me hungry so let’s get on with this before my hunger takes over.
Whenever our children act out their interests whether it’s sports related or musical or dramatic or other artistic endeavors or more along the domestic line, we need to pay attention so we can encourage them in ways that will enhance their lives in adulthood or serve them as a livelihood. The advantage of the Deluxe Let’s Cook Kitchen is that your future chef will have a wonderful opportunity to express himself or herself in this “test kitchen”. Even if it’s not a sign of things to come, what’s the harm, they’ll still have fun learning something new.
Looking back – something we adults are fond of doing – we often see missed opportunities for exploring our interests which could have led to our future careers. We’ve heard the axiom, “… do what you love and you’ll never work a day of your life.” Knowing that, let’s do everything we can to make those possibilities become opportunities for our children on their life’s path.
