We've had a few cooking lessons - dry beans, pudding and soup.  Esme had handed me the package of dry beans and called them 'canned'.. so I said it was time to see how that was done.  She wasn't too enthused about the beans - but today when strawberry pudding and chicken noodle soup was involved she was very ready to cook!  I helped but she had to make decisions and answer questions and do the things she could do, like stir, open some things and pour water etc.  Also, we have started reading the Little House in the Big Woods book last night -- and just finished watching Aliens in the Attic :)
