Activity with your Kids!

Kitchen activities invite opportunities for children's curiosity with culinary activities.
Toddlers become curious when they turn four or five years old and will start to ask to help doing household chores (i.e. cooking and washing) with you.

Naturally, you have to let them try safe activities, the ones that do not involve fire and sharp objects for these are hazardous to the little ones. They still don't know how to handle them properly (but you can give blunt knives if they really want to slice and chop, especially to those who are more culinary inclined).

Just make sure to supervise them whenever you invite them in the kitchen. You can do all the major work while telling them cooking tricks and answering their questions. This also brings you and your child together.

Wiping tables, handing items to adult to put away, add ingredients, talk about cooking, squeeze citrus fruits, peel eggs and some fruits, set the table, measure liquids, and use an egg beater are few of the activities you can give your kid at an appropriate age.

Aside from letting them help around the kitchen, you can get your little ones to try new foods. Children feel good whenever they do grown-up stuffs. Give them something small to do and praise their efforts. Children are also less likely to reject the foods they prepared themselves.

By weekly or daily bonding with your child in the kitchen, indirectly, you share about cooking and "kitchen" ideas with illustrations straight from your cooking abode.

As the new generation grow up in the kitchen, they get the idea, by themselves, as to what counter-tops are best, based on the experience they will gather, what lighting fixtures are appropriate in the kitchen not only depending on their taste, and what are the best utensils to use for kitchen pastime.

New Year New Kitchen Look

Bored with your usual kitchen hue? Why not try experimenting and applying new colors for a more vibrant kitchen in the upcoming 2013?

The kitchen is usually the less colorful, blunt area of the house yet in it is where we spend more time; cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner, even preparing and/or having mid afternoon snacks with friends. So with this most time we spend in our kitchen, this part of the house should not have the less energetic shade.

Here are four simple ways to redesign for your 2013 kitchen.

You can update your kitchen by painting a different color on your kitchen cabinets. This makes your cooking room more attractive. You can use bright colors like red, tangerine, and lemon for a more livelier feel. You can also opt for emerald green which was announced by Pantone to be 2013's color of the year; for a harmonized and balanced look. Though you can choose colors that attract your attention, colors may also spray your personality.

Kitchen design trends exhibit a more collaborative and casual way of cooking, preparing, eating, and entertainment; to some households, entertaining might not be included, nevertheless, the kitchen somehow portrays our love especially for our loved ones. The unification of appliances such as microwaves, ovens and fridges should match the cabinetry which gives your kitchen a much cleaner and organized look. This also makes the kitchen look simple and neat.

The era of stained or painted woods had gone, let modernization shed light to your kitchen space. You can paint your cabinets with ashy colors paired with white background.

Though if this paint pairing be applied more commonly, your cook-room may be mildly overpowering. The application however of high-gloss paints on the frames of about two (2) inches around your cabinetry while the rest pf the cabinet is stained provides a sensational effect.

For a more collaborative and artistic atmosphere, you can integrate a mosaic-design of backsplash over your sinks or stoves, appropriate lighting on your island table while your stainless steel appliances will blend well to make a more breathtaking galley.

 Lastly, wall murals and wallpapers will do well to complete your renovation. You can put up wall decals between or on your cabinets to make your kitchen look quaint and graphic inspired. Gingham patterns, cottage florals and polka dots on the breakfast bar look fantastic when paired with bright lighting.

Christmas Decorating Ideas for your Kitchen

The kitchen to many homes does not only serve as a cooking space but also a place where social activity like informal meals, coffee with friends and loved ones, or sharing of dishes you enjoy with others happen.

Ornamenting the kitchen is perhaps the most difficult part of the house to decorate because maybe our ideas have all been drained in the living and the dining rooms where most of the formal gatherings are held and where guests usually are welcomed. Another probable reason is that the kitchen should always be kept safe at all time since it is where the hazardous objects are found. Nevertheless, not a part of the house should be left dull and untouched of the art of Christmas!

Having to reuse the decors you had from the previous Christmas season does not matter as long as your decors are in one piece and in good decorating condition. Doorways to the kitchen can be adorned by garlands attached with other Christmas ornaments like colorful Christmas balls, candy canes, Santa stockings, painted pine cones, etc. You can also tie your door knobs (those entry to kitchen with doors) with ribbons either colored with red, gold, green, or blue.

You can hang with scalloped- edge or pin tinsels on cupboards or cabinets. The depth of hanging designs depends now on your preference. However, be advised that hanging designs can somehow become distorted with frequently opening and closing cupboard doors.

Santa Claus is one of the most awaited figures in Christmas and no one enjoys more cookies, besides children and children at hearts, than the legendary person himself. Having a santa cookie canister/jar in your kitchen uplifts the spirit of the holiday season. This perfectly goes well with santa serving plate and santa glasses for desserts like brownies or cupcakes for guests and children, which further adds an inviting holiday mood to your kitchen.

 

Finally, embellishing your island table is the crowning glory of your kitchen since it is where your guests get to spend more time with while you are busy preparing for your gathering. You can either place the santa canister/jar and serving plates on your island table placed on a green or red mat sprinkled with fake snow or silver dust or adorn the things that are already on your table. For example with your fruit trays, tie its trunk with red or gold ribbon; or sprinkle again with silver dust or snow-like paper-cut coated with silver dust around its base or on the tray; or play with silver and gold ornaments with evergreen and flowers; or a mysterious thing wrapped with tinsel placed on a tray to raise everyone's curiosity.
