WHY I ALLOW MY YOUNG GIRLS TO PLAY WITH KNIVES AND FIRE
Why not, right?
As some of you have already noticed, sometimes @papa-pepper parents his @little-peppers in some slightly different ways. Today, I wanted to share a GIF with you all to help others understand why I allow my young girls to play with knives and fire. Hopefully, this will help others understand.
THE BLESSING OF KNIVES AND FIRE GIF
MY REASONING ON THE SUBJECT
Eventually, children will grow. Hopefully, by the time that they do grow, they will understand some things and even have some skills. Since children can enjoy learning real life skills, we encourage them to participate in daily activities as they have the opportunity.
Recently, we decided to surprise @mama-pepper with a cheesecake. We had to work quickly to avoid detection, which required group effort. In a supervised setting like this, cutting some butter with a knife or heating a skillet on a stove are within the capabilities of our older children.
Making a simple desert like this includes a lot of education too. we have to READ instructions and follow them accurately. We have to MEASURE and COUNT, and do the particular tasks IN ORDER too. Best of all, if we accomplish everything correctly, we have a delicious result and reward for our hard work.
Okay, maybe this post wasn't exactly what you were thinking it was going to be, but I do hope that you understand my point. Cheesecake is good!
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

I understood you completely! If my parents didn’t let me “play with knife and fire” I wouldn’t be a foot cooker probably. Most of my age friends can make only sandwich... 😅 Unfortunatley “today’s parents” don’t let you touch nearly nothing. That is so sad 😢
I agree with you! Keep going 😊
P.s it was wrote by pedagog 😊
Thanks for the encouragement!
Parenting is just another investment and it’s clear you have your investments priorities in the right place...investing in your kids and their early understanding of tool/knife culture and investing in motivated people on steemit! No need to make either seems scary or elusive. Glad I finally got linked to your profile. Following along on your adventures with the pepper family clan. : )
What a cool comment! You're right about investments! Thanks!
I love this post. Thanks.

It's so important to get them involved, if for no other reason than to get them out of your hair, my little one wanted to play waiter tonight and set the table and carried out the food and called me "chef", it was great. Much better than being called "pee-pee poo-poo head"
"Chef" does sound better.
Bon Appetit! :D
because they young girls are very intelligent and they know how to use knife and fire. @papa-peppe
Your children are amazing with great skills. They should be an example for us and our children.
Well, looking at the gif they aren't actually playing with fire, they are making use of it, its goid training. Because as a womsn which they are when they grow up, that's gonna be their main too.. So let them get used to handling them at early stage.. Btw your kids are too beautiful
Yeah, perhaps "play" wasn't the correct word, but they have enough fun with it that it could still qualify.
If they don't learn while young they will turn into those who never learn.
OUCH!
Adopted daughter was terrified of any knife or fire because she was pushed away from learning.
