We are supposed to be doing some homeschool but I am a bit distracted at the moment. So, Olivia is making a snack for she and Mik (pronounced "Meek") while I was down here getting ready for Language Arts. She had been up there for a while, and while I am trying to nurture independence, I had to see what she was making. My camera battery is dead but now charging so I have no picture to show of her newest creation.
She is literally writing down the recipe as I type. It is a kind of a salad. It is chopped apples (she chopped those puppies with an Ikea kiddie knife folks). So it is chopped apples, a light smattering of cottage cheese and cornflakes and graham crackers. She made some just for me and I didn't want any initially but then I went up to try some and you know you what? The flavors do actually work surprisingly work together. Who knew?

sorry. still gross. but i love fostering independence.
do those knives work well? are they fairly safe? Worth getting? Christopher (4 1/2) has been wanting to use knives, but I won't let him touch mine!
I think they are a good kid knife. I don't have any squalms about giving them to any of my kids. 1yr to almost 7 yr old alike. You can't cut yourself with them. It gouches apples more than cuts it but they get some practice. I also like the Pampered Chef kid knife too.
oh you are braver than i...i'd be VERY afraid to eat anythings aj created LOL
and ikea kiddie knive...do tell more
