Of course we baked things. My oldest made bread a couple times a week. His fingers got a lot stronger and he mellowed out... Now he is on a paleo diet so no bread.... My daughter made cookies all the time. Her 6 kids mostly know how to bake and fix simple foods. I would add in... In addition to baking make them clean the dishes as they go. Then my youngest learned to cook. He can cook anything. He can improvise. He has been a professional baker and chef and scored extremely well on evaluations. But he loves waiting tables, entertaining and managing best.
