What could be better than making pancakes from scratch? It’s also incredibly easy.
If you teach your children how to prepare their own meals from a young age, you teach them responsibility and reinforce their own abilities.
It also helps with their critical thinking skills and keeps them out of trouble. If they are younger, they can assist with measuring out the pancake ingredients and if they’re older than 6 years old they can definitely get more involved.
