Mine delighted when I allow them to. Of course it's then things like â…“ neat cordial to â…” lemonade or some such godawful diabetes inducing mixture.

About 6/7. Depends how full the squash bottle is as they are heavy to tip accurately when full

I can make my own cups of tea, doesn’t mean I don’t prefer DH doing it!

My 6 year old can definitely do it, knowing her probably from as soon as she could reach the tap!

They didn't make it - I think squash is foul and never had it in the house. But they could get themselves some water as soon as they could reach the sink.

About 7/8? My 13 year old makes hot drinks now too

About like above.
Water from about 4.
Squash from much later, because we didn't have it in the house until they were much older. Until the youngest was 8, water flavourings came powdered, and really wasn't very pleasant to drink! Then we came to the uk, and they discovered English squash!!

Around 6. My youngest has started the past 8 months or so since January when we got the kitchen replaced and I moved all the cups and bottles of juice into a lower cupboard he could reach. Helps that the new fridge has a water dispenser as I'm not sure he would have been able to reach the tap before then. He is 6.

Hmmm, can't remember. About 4 or 5.

TwigTheWonderKid · 21/08/2024 21:05

Probably about 7. He's 15 now and he huffs and puffs about it now!

KEG05 · 21/08/2024 21:07

My 4 year old can. Quite well and rarely with a mess. She’s nearly 5

Honestly can't remember. Dts have been making tea since they were about 7 and were doing cold drinks before that. Usually involving cutting lemons and limes. Leaving a mess, and then not drinking the drink...
