We recently had a Korean home stay student for 5 weeks. During this time we went out shopping, to Motat, Timezone etc, but I think the most fun she had might have been baking. We made cookies - Gingerbread Men actually. She advised she had never baked before. She had fun rolling out the dough and cutting it with the cookie cutters. She loved icing them and certainly enjoyed eating them as well! She asked if we could do it again and so we made some more the following weekend. My mum went out and bought her a cookie cutting set as a gift to take home, although from what she said, not sure her mum will be too keen on her making them at home. She said her mum usually doesn't let her help, let alone be loose in the kitchen.
I loved her help. My kids sat by whilst she would help unpack the groceries, she always asked if she could help and readily tried her hand at anything and everything. She didn't like everything, but at least tried most things.
