The Kraft site has a lot of great ideas too. http://www.kraftfoods.com/KF/YOURKIDS/KidsLandingPage.aspx

Setting up safety rules ahead of time and practicing the dish yourself will help so much. You can make easy cold things like fruit kabobs. They can cut fruit with a plastic knife.
I made pancakes with preschoolers. Using a spatula with a long handle and placing something inbewteen the child and the electric griddle works well. Of course a staff person has to be in charge of the griddle at all times.
We rolled out bread dough and filled it with all kinds of things like cheese, ham, pizza sauce, etc. like a calzone and bake them.

Mango-Cheese Quesadilla
A Cooking with Kids Original Recipe

Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: about 5 minutes
Yield: 1 serving (1 quesadilla)

Use this as a basic recipe for quesadillas (keh-sah-DEE-yahs)âa Mexican treat that melts cheese and other goodies in a flour tortilla. This version pairs sweet mangoes with tangy red onion and melted cheese, but you can make quesadillas using your favorite ingredients. Be careful that the tortilla doesn't cook faster than the cheese can melt, or you'll wind up with a hard, blackened, Frisbee-like concoction. For best results, cook on medium to low heat, checking the bottom of the tortilla after a couple of minutes to make sure it's not burning. If you're cooking many quesadillas, place the cooked ones on a baking sheet in a warm oven until all are completed. For more creative combinations, see the list of ideas below.

Kid Tip
Kids of all ages can help make these tasty morsels. Young ones can shred or sprinkle on the cheese, and kids old enough to use a knife can chop the ingredients and flip the quesadillas with a spatula.

Cooking Tip
When preparing quesadillas, make sure your ingredients are thinly sliced, finely shredded or finely chopped, so they'll cook or melt quickly.

Do this first:

Chop enough red onion to make 1 tablespoon.
Peel and chop enough mango to make 1/3 cup.
Shred enough Monterey Jack or other cheese to make 1/3 cup, or use pre-shredded cheese.
If the tortilla seems dry, wet your clean hands and rub it on both sides with water to dampen. Let the tortilla rest a few minutes to absorb the moisture before cooking.

Wish you great success. =)

Dragon Ball Z opening with gohan running on dragon?




monstorous


Am I crazy, because i remember watching dragonball z and the opening sequence would be an instrumental version of rock the dragon, with gohan running on the draogn, and goku picking him up on the flying nimbus. I don't think it was the credits because i remember that being just gohan running on it i think. I always watched it on cartoon network. I can't find this version, if it exists, anywhere on the internet


Answer
yes i remember it as that too. gohan as a kid running on the dragon. it was the intro.

EDIT:

here is it. it is the jap version
