This is fantastic!

Julian Kreusser is a sweet five-year-old with his own cooking show on Portland cable access TV. I absolutely loved this episode and love that fact that this young man is making his own food rather than eating Twinkies, chips, and Ho Ho's (infront of the TV). 

I hope this idea gets out and inspires more parents to encourage their kids to explore the kitchen and get involved in meal preparation. Not only is it healthy, but it allows the child to read and follow instructions, get creative, exercise patience, and become a more valuable member of the family. 

BrooklynTwang sez, "his story is full of win - there is the coolness of a 5 year old boy who loves cooking, the refreshingness of a cooking show with an awkward host, and what appears to be some very cool free range parenting, encouraging the kids enthusiasm for something and letting him use food processors, stoves, etc. to follow his muse. I just watched an episode and it was rad. It even included a plug from Julian to buy your food locally because its better for you!"
