Very Grown Up!

The young lady pictured here will be starting the next stage in her education in just over a month.

She'll be starting gan, nursery school.  She'll be in for a disappointment, since she thinks she's going to SCHOOL like all her elder siblings.  In her mind she's the same as they are.  I'm sure you can see that.  Can't you?

Teach 'em Young!

My two pre-school granddaughters are learning how to cook. My daughter is a firm believer in teaching them young, whether it's cooking, cleaning or washing the dishes. She didn't learn it from me, unfortunately.

She's right. The theory is that too many of us stop/ped the kids from doing potentially helpful things, because the child is "too young" or making a mess. Then by the time the kid is "old enough," he or she couldn't be bothered.

My granddaughters are pictured here getting the rice ready, after checking for bugs, stones etc.

And while we're talking about cooking, please don't forget to send me links for the next Kosher Cooking Carnival!

Either send to shilohmuse at gmail dot com or to blog carnival. Thanks!!!
