We're pleased to hear that you are going to take on the challenge of baking with kids, Mercy! We think this is an important skill to impart to children and is a great opportunity to do some experiential learning. If you are baking with more than one child, it may be useful to use the "divide and conquer" technique: try assigning the dry ingredient to one helper and the wet to another. Also, measuring out the ingredients beforehand may help. Kids love dumping and mixing! As for the language barrier, writing out the measurements on post-it notes and sticking it to the ingredients can prove to be a helpful shortcut. Thank goodness numbers are universal! Also, we have some kid-friendly recipes that you may enjoy on our website. One is our Cake-Pan Cake, which like your yellow cake recipe can be prepared all in one pan. Also look for recipes that are flagged as "Quick and Easy," for example our Happy baking! Kye@KAF
