Recent research suggests that teaching kids to cook may enhance their self-esteem, happiness and sense of family togetherness.

A survey of 1,000 children ages 10 to 17 by Betty Crocker Kitchens found that:

– Nearly 90 percent of kids feel proud when they have cooked something.

– 80 percent say cooking is fun.

– 94 percent like that the whole family eats dinner together.

– More than 70 percent said they would be willing to do some of the cook-ing if it helped their families eat dinner together more often.
