Always carry on mate should I include my kids one a full time care low functioning autistic and the daughter high functioning, the baby seems to be normal, so to speak. Time will tell but I reckon I cracked a normal kid, he would be showing signs by now.
I try to give my kids all the worldly experiance I can from cooking like I do every day to the garden etc. beer is a product of the garden and cooking and I want to learn this to get a great brew.
Cheese is the product of milking Nd fermenting/culturing and I hAve explained this to them also, heat equells curd with extras.
Tobacco on the other hand is a year long process turning seed into smoke able product. The kids know this is dad's leaf but wNt to enjoy the time harvesting and prepping it for smoking.
Like home brew they want in and found them putting a few drops of highly hopped ale into dolls shoes.... Just to try it my daughter tells me, it isnt like real beer (Carlton draught usually) it is nice and fruity, I like it..... I moved the fermenters to the garage away from prying fingers, eyes and hands. My son just jumped around like usual. I'd guess he didn't taste any as he won't taste new foods anyway but he seemed to be excited over the last brew, I bet because of the stinky hops(mouth watering) want to drink them.
