The Scrappiest #81

Time for a new sketch over at The Scrappiest. Come and join us... the DT inspirations are just amazing! HERE....... Remember you can win a $25 Gift Certificate....... wow.. that's lots of scrappy goodness! Here's my take" Training begins at home" I really like this photo of my girl, she is a pro at helping me peel carrots and potato. I allow her to handle a 'not so sharp' peeler and it goes fun. We started about when she was 2 and a half years old. Now at 3+, she is really very good with that. I even give her a butter knife to cut tofu, fishcake..... She is enjoying the 'grown up' responsibilities......... and she is enjoying her food better. A sense of achievement when she eats those food she cuts or peels. LOL! I believe in training kids from young to take simple responsibilities so that they can enjoy the process and learn to cook, take care of themselves....... So, what's your secret training 'program' for your kids? Share with me Have a great weekend ahead!

How adorable! I love the design here, love that lady down in the bottom corner. She is so perfect for your theme. I really like how she balances out the weight of the photo on the right, and I love the border of flowers down the middle. super cute!
