Are double yolks lucky? If they are, I was very lucky when I was making omelettes the other day. Not pictured but I broke 6 eggs and FOUR were double yolks! What are the chances? Eggs are the best thing to start cooking with with your children. They are so versatile. From cracking to mixing, from omelette to scrambled egg to French toast. Having children be involved in cooking gives them skills they can take through adult hood. I always give them one cup to put the egg into and one to put the shell in, do it near the sink and actively clean up with them. And if shell gets in the cup? Dont worry, use the other piece of the shell as it cuts through the albumen and you can retrieve it. Pour it into a bowl to give children more access/vosibility. Then once they have cracked those simple dishes (see what I did there) you can start adding other ingredients and make other recipes with egg!

I did not know that using another piece of shell to remove the little bits of shell works well - great tip 👍

2moI did all of our family baking as a child and loved it. I think it also helps develop fine motor skills, it's a lot of fun, and there's something yummy to eat at the end.
