Cook Something!
From making chocolate milk to putting together a full dinner, teaching kids to cook is a great activity. It incorporates so many skills - pouring, measuring, cutting, reading, math, science - why wouldn't you want to do this? (Ok, the mess. OH, the mess!)
I find it important to teach kids that food doesn't have to always come from a box, but if you want to teach them how to fend for themselves by making the Blue Box Dinner - go for it! Dig out Grandma's chocolate chip recipe and let them lick the bowl. Or make a spaghetti dinner from scratch - pasta, sauce, meatballs, salad, the works! Maybe just teach a tween how to make a grilled cheese, or your kindergartner how to make a PBJ. Whatever their level, give it a whirl!
