Free Web NovelChapter 560: Chapter 493: Letting the Kids Learn Cooking from Chef Huang? Are You Serious?
In the parents’ group of Dorami Kindergarten’s small class (4), everyone was chatting enthusiastically.
Pengpeng’s Mom: "This time, our kindergarten’s ’Fruit and Vegetable Food Sale’ was really awesome! Every class made some delicious special foods, and they all tasted pretty good. Especially the candied hawthorn made with the help of Chef Huang from large class (2), the taste was simply better than any hawthorn candy stall outside. After I had it, I wanted more. At that time, I only bought three sticks to share with my family, feeling that it was not enough to satisfy our cravings. What I regret the most is that I didn’t manage to buy our class’s spinach cake, now I think about it, it’s such a pity!"
Yuanyuan’s Mom: "@Pengpeng’s Mom, we’re in the same boat, aren’t we? It really is a tale of woe. I originally planned to head straight to our class, but got distracted halfway by the lights of small class (3) and went over to take photos. Later, I heard the hawking from large class (2), so I quickly took my kid to buy the candied hawthorns. Those hawthorns were indeed delicious, and after finishing, Yuanyuan and I wanted to buy another stick, but unfortunately, they were sold out. By the time we ran back to our class to buy the spinach cake, it was already gone..."
Miaomiao’s Mom: "@Pengpeng’s Mom@Yuanyuan’s Mom, you two should count yourself lucky, at least you got to taste the hawthorn. I was late today, didn’t even get a glimpse of the hawthorn, let alone our class’s spinach cake. What a pity... I can only wait for next year’s ’Fruit and Vegetable Food Sale’."
Hanghang’s Mom: "It’s all my kid’s fault for not telling me earlier that our class’s spinach cake was taught by Qingqing’s Dad, hands-on with the kids. By the time I learned this news and rushed over to buy some, it was all sold out, such a shame!"
Pengpeng’s Dad: "Alas, we parents from small class (4), didn’t even take advantage of our close proximity to the spinach cake; instead, our opportunity was snapped up by those nearby elders who came out of curiosity. If this gets out, I bet it would be a laughing stock..."
Niuniu’s Mom: "I didn’t expect Qingqing’s Dad to not only be great at cooking but also have the patience to teach the kids how to make food, I’m truly impressed!"
Pengpeng’s Mom: "It’s a pity my Pengpeng wasn’t appointed as a little chef by the teacher and missed out on Qingqing’s Dad’s personal guidance in making spinach cake. He missed a precious chance to learn and experience. Otherwise, tonight I’d definitely have Pengpeng make me a spinach cake to taste."
Hanghang’s Mom: "Only a few kids were fortunate to have Qingqing’s Dad’s culinary guidance during this event. My Hanghang regrettably wasn’t chosen and could only help with some auxiliary work. But it’s okay, I’ve encouraged Hanghang to be more proactive next time, hoping he can personally get guidance from Qingqing’s Dad and learn true skills. Soon, I will have the chance to taste delicious pastries made by my own Hanghang, just the thought of it is exciting!"
Yuanyuan’s Mom: "@Hanghang’s Mom, your plan sure sounds ambitious!"
Tiantian’s Mom: "Fellow parents, I heard that our kindergarten’s chef is not only responsible for daily cooking but also undertakes a certain subject teaching task within the kindergarten. Have any of you heard about this?"
Qianqian’s Mom: "I’ve heard something about it too, I guess it’s probably a culinary class. Many kindergartens now offer various interest classes like cooking, painting, papercutting, and such to enrich the kids’ extracurricular life. Qingqing’s Dad might be teaching these kinds of classes!"
Tiantian’s Mom: "Well then, suggesting Qingqing’s Dad teach cooking to the kids should be the natural thing to do, right? After all, he currently balances a teaching role in the kindergarten, doesn’t he? It would be a shame not to utilize this expertise, right?"
Qianqian’s Mom: Hahaha, Tiantian’s Mom, your desire to be a "hands-off manager" is quite evident! But indeed, Qingqing’s Dad’s cooking and teaching abilities are well-known. If the kids could learn cooking in kindergarten, it would not only cultivate their hands-on abilities but also allow them to learn life skills through practice. What does everyone think about that?
Tiantian’s Mom: "I fully support this proposal! We can jointly propose to the school for Qingqing’s Dad to open a culinary course and provide the kids with a unique learning experience!"
Hanghang’s Mom: "Honestly, even if it’s not about teaching culinary skills, having Qingqing’s Dad teach classes for the kids would be excellent. After all, he has managed to teach Qingqing and Weiwei to be so understanding and well-behaved, and he is a person of integrity and responsibility. If he teaches our kids, I have no doubt they won’t fall short in terms of character."
Yuanyuan’s Mom: "Exactly, in that emergency drill, Qingqing’s Dad jumped up to protect the kids without a second thought; such responsibility and courage aren’t common. Look at other kindergartens, emergency drills are often just for show."
Niuniu’s Mom: "Yeah, for a chef to go all out to protect the kids, we as parents certainly feel inferior."
Pengpeng’s Dad: "You’re so right, some parents nowadays are really worrying, only caring about having fun while neglecting their kids. Some are even so into playing mahjong that they’d leave their children alone at home, and if something happens, it would be too late for regrets."
Hanghang’s Mom: "Wasn’t there news recently about parents who were so caught up in playing mahjong that their child starved to death! These parents are really too irresponsible..."
