For whatever reason, even though I taught them all to clean up, i have 3 neat freaks, and 2 that just go with the flow.
Their love for cooking continues. Oh Gosh, and they are still messy, difference is, now they have their own kitchen..
LOL I can relate. Doesn't matter how hard I try, my kitchen is a war zone when I'm through. My kids are cleaner than I am! LOL.
Yep, inevitable! I used to try to avoid it and then instead now I just do it when I have extra patience. I put on some music, make myself some coffee or something and go at it. They are learning!
For me i think the mess is what adds to the whole experience of baking with children and having fun...i can't see tha harm in having a little flour here and there.
I see your point Kammy, but I would really have to condition my mind for this. I could not see myself doing this on a consistent basis. Truth be told cleaning up can be quite a challenge for me sometimes and because I am always rushing I can easily create my own mess.
I am afraid I don't have the solution to no mess with children and baking. I feel like the two go hand in hand. Who knows? I might be wrong?
