Improves Reading Whether you write down the instructions yourself or you follow a pre-made recipe, in order to prepare the dish you will need to read the step-by-step instructions and list of ingredients. Let your kids help you and work on reading skills as you go. You can sound out words together, let them point out any words or letters they recognize, and even use pictures to help identify the different words you are looking for.
Teaches Problem Solving You’re making oatmeal raisin cookies when UH OH! You realize you are out of raisins. Instead of freaking out because something went wrong, as toddlers tend to do, teach them how to troubleshoot. Explain that you can substitute the raisins for another ingredient and work together to pick one that might work. Naturally you’ll choose chocolate chips (a far better choice in our opinion).
