Children in the Kitchen

At the only feast where I was incharge a friend of mine brought his
child to me saying he was being punished and that I needed to work
him(wink) to the death. Well first I put him to cutting onions because
he said he was good with a knife and the person that was already
cutting onions showed him how I wanted them done and he did a good
job. I then showed him to the dishes and he did that for a very long
time because as he washed dishes kept right on coming. He only had
one incident where he back talked one of the lady's of the shire. I
told him to apolagise and he did after I picked him up by his shirt to
show him that he had crossed the line of fun and introuble. After
that he didn't even ask he just worked and stayed after feast to help
with clean up.
I think that kids ages 10 and up can help out wonderfully if
someone is their with them. Also as a hint if you have servers who are
young make sure they can carry a piture of water it will save you a
lot of grief.

As I have stated in earlier posts, in addition to being a cook/kitchen slave,
I also am a Chancellor's Minor. However, I have no children of my own -- I
prefer to give them back when I am done.
I am looking for volunteer activities for children to do and wanted to know
how other Kitchen Overlords felt about children (no younger that 8-10) in
their kitchens.
