One thing I can tell you, if you are going to teach them about  
cooking on the stove, teach them caution first.  I am a good cook and  
am normally very careful when dealing with hot pans, etc,. but I  
managed to scald myself last Sunday and am now dealing with a second  
degree burn on my wrist and hand. I was attempting to drain pasta via  
the lid (which is perforated for this purpose) but I was inattentive  
and the lid fell off and the hot water and pasta poured over my  
hand.  Worse pain that I can remember in my life.  So the lessons are  
twofold:

1) Pay attention to what you are doing at all times in the kitchen, and
2) Lots of cool water is the best first aid for a burn.

Then run to the pharmacy with the burnt hand wrapped in cold paper  
towels in freezing weather to get ointment and bandages, which leads  
me to the most important thing --

HAVE A FULLY-STOCKED FIRST AID KIT IN THE HOUSE OR FLAT

My best friend gave me a colander, saying I now have no excuse to get  
into hot water! ;)
