Jennifer Lopez teaches children to prepare food when she is not at home

“I want them to grow up feeling confident and capable, even when I’m not around,” Lopez explained in an interview.

Jennifer shared that she has started teaching her kids how to make simple meals, focusing on healthy options and creativity. From scrambled eggs to pasta dishes, Max and Emme are learning the basics of cooking.

“They love experimenting,” Lopez said. “I tell them it’s okay to make mistakes—just have fun with it.”

Cooking, she believes, teaches more than just how to prepare food. “It’s about responsibility, decision-making, and appreciating the effort that goes into a meal.”
