"I have a (just) 11-year-old who has always loved cooking. She started with cutting out biscuits and making crispy cakes and beating eggs and she can now make chickpea curry, scrambled eggs, mince pies (she did all ours this year) muffins, biscuits, a Nigella Lawson chocolate cake, pasta carbonara and several other things completely unaided. She also makes a fair stab at the cleaning up. She gets a huge buzz out of cooking for us, and has several times done dinner for us all. She was on cloud nine for ages after she did that!" katelyle
