What machines have they been using with you? Mine both play with the little playskool machine toy and pretend all the time. About a year ago I sat Emily (now 8) in front of mine and she was just too scared, so I backed off. Not scared tonight. She was turning dials as I instructed her without any hesitation. Elise knows she has to wait to sew because she's younger, but I am including her on the how to's. Then when it's her turn she will be ready. Having the Possibilities book was great as they can look at that at the same time.
