Also great for hygiene. Also, the basic cleaning up most cooks do is great practice for when the kids have homes of their own. They also learn how to store foodstuffs, grow herbs, mix and match tastes and smells. If you let them wash their own aprons and washcloths, the older ones learn basic hand laundering and stain removal skills. They may sound unimportant but they make such a big difference to one's adult life! Oh and if they cook in an assembly line -- say for sandwiches or salads or whatever -- it's a good lesson in every role being an important one, no matter how small it seems.
