My first attempt at scrambled eggs looked more like a science experiment gone wrong, lol.

Ugh, maybe for older kids, but mine would just burn everything.

Watched my friend's seven year old completely drown his first boxed mac and cheese in milk. He looked so crushed when it was basically soup. They tried again the next week, he got the hang of it, and now he makes the whole box himself every Tuesday. That kid took real pride in getting it right, and it built his confidence from the ground up.
