As a mother, I always want to spend good and quality time with my kids. I enjoy having quality times with them through cooking. Preparing merienda or dinner with your kids can be a disaster and a wonderful experience that teaches your kids and gives you a memory to treasure. But you won't exchange it for anything else. :)
I have had some wonderful memories of laughing while cooking with my kids. Although you may think twice of the possible mess, I still urge you to try cooking with your kids. There are benefits that outweigh the mess and possible frustration. One benefit is that a child is more likely to eat what she has a hand in cooking.
Be patient. Knowing you will clean a spill or two and that cooking may take a little bit longer. Convince yourself to be okay. Your kids will one day grow old enough to want nothing to do with the kitchen so enjoy the time you have.
Make sure you have everything you need out and ready before you start. You do not want to be struggling to find the measuring cup while unbeknown to you... your toddler is adding her own ingredients to the bowl.
Most of all. Enjoy!!!
Special Bonding
It is important that we give our kids the attention they need. Being a mother or parents doesn't end with giving them food or providing them their needs. Our children also need attention, love and time.
Even a few minutes of conversation about their school activities, on how their days went and so on. It is important that you will be a special part of their day.
Me, I see to it that no matter how busy I am from work and daily activities, I still have time for them. I see to it that they will feel my love and presence everyday of their lives. And I want to see how they grow day by day.

Its funny
Its funny and heart warming when you see your child dancing and singing with the other kids... playing and start drawing on her own. This is what I felt when i see my youngest drawing her first man. A round head, round eyes, round nose, round hands, body and everything.
I know you just can't imagine how it looks like. I'm telling you, it looks like a man though.... just a little bit funny.
We should encourage our children to do things on their own, no matter how it will look like. This would help them build their self confidence and feel good about ourselves. It will also make them feel secured. The way we react with their accomplishment will have a large contribution on how they will see themselves
