&gt; have fun soldering for few hours per week and let him be with you when you do that.<p>I just want to follow up and say that as a parent, you should do your best to involve them in whatever it is that you&#x27;re doing.  If you&#x27;re cooking, have them help you measure things.  If you&#x27;re playing board games, let them move&#x2F;place the pieces for you.  If it&#x27;s something that they can&#x27;t safely be involved with, talk to them about what&#x27;s going on.<p>Explain what you&#x27;re doing along the way.<p>Involve them, and expose them, to a wide range of activities.  Children&#x27;s minds can handle and process a lot more than most people give them credit for.
