Starting from the diet safety education, take children to learn knowledge from life and grow up physically and mentally.

Another interview with Wang Qiaoyi, the mother of "Real Food Education". Her eldest child is now in the life of the country. "Children bring us too many challenges that we never thought of," she recalled. When cooking, one will come over to help, and the other two will follow, so you have to find a way to give them something to do. " As a matter of fact, when children step into the kitchen, it is mostly fun at first. However, there are so many large and small tools in the kitchen that she takes the opportunity to teach children how to protect themselves from injury, and how to deal with them even if they are injured. The process of taking children to cook together over the years has also evolved from the way children play in childhood to the training and development of family affairs and life.

"the elder sister is the oldest, so she can be taught to use a knife; the younger sister takes the second place, and beating eggs is just right for her. As for the younger brother who was the only one in the middle class in kindergarten at that time, he gave him the job of washing vegetables." The seemingly simple assignment of work actually has security considerations. From an early age, when they were working together in the kitchen, children learned silently how to cooperate with others and the ability to break things down into steps, as well as more important logical thinking, communication, leadership, and so on. the power of life education should not be underestimated.

Wang Qiaoyi recalled the process of taking care of the children together. At the beginning, she was inadvertently inserted into the willow, but it blossomed and bear fruit a few years later, resulting in a beautiful accident.

To put it another way, nutrition education that accompanies growth.

Because the child follows his mother from an early age, family affairs, kitchen affairs, life and all things come into view. If the child is often given the opportunity to educate, the child will be able to build a considerable and stable value background imperceptibly. Like the concept of food additives, by constantly saying that candy contains a lot of pigments and additives that are bad for the human body, even if children get candy at school, they dare not eat it at will, but always take it home and take the initiative to disarm; and to get balanced nutrition from food, such as which foods are rich in vitamins, minerals or fiber.

Qiao Kui mentioned that under the popularity of food education in recent years, children all have a good understanding of food nutrition, but when they begin to enter puberty, she can't help but want to resist the change of hormone. "they ate whatever they were told to eat when they were young, but it's different now. I will say to the child in a different way, for example: sister! Now you are beginning to have acne on your face. if you often eat fried chicken steak and junk food outside, you will eat too much trans fat and make you fat. in addition, you often sleep late, which will increase free radicals, which will not only destroy the ability of cells to repair. the skin will get worse, and acne won't be easy to get better. " For the sake of beauty, adolescent children seem to have soft ears.

Extend environmental education through cuisine

Qiao recalled that the early dishes of the cooperative often had a lot of worms. At first, the children were too scared to touch them. At this time, they told the children that because there were no pesticides in the cooperative's vegetables, they would eat them. Then, from the issue of vegetable insects and pesticides to the food in the supermarket, didn't they also claim to be pesticide-free? Then why do their dishes look so beautiful and co-operative dishes so ugly? When it comes to the relatively safe reduction of pesticides, why to buy vegetables from small farmers, and even serious issues such as land justice, we can start talking to children through food.

For Qiaohu, from cooking to ability development, the deep planting of the concept of division of labor in family affairs, and the rooted values, are all important life education.

"Cooking is more than cooking." Qiao said. She saw that many parents did not hesitate to send their children to cooking classes, but she thought that if their children could not integrate cooking with their lives when they got home, the cooking class would be just a very interesting activity and it would be over. After all, cooking is still a part of life, and if it is cut off from life, it also cuts off the very important connection of meaning. Parents should think deeply about what they want their children to learn from cooking.
