You might also try the SCA main web site and check corpora. I don't believe 
there is a rule about children under age in the kitchen. I know in my 
Kingdom, Atenveldt, and in my barony, Tir Ysgther, we use children of 13 on 
up; many times our servers are 14 or 15 years old. I believe here they look 
on it as a private kitchen, like a home, and it is up to the cook.
