NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – With schools closed and activities canceled, some New Mexico parents are giving their kids a lesson in home economics.

A few nights ago, Destinee Sanchez put her five-year-old daughter Jazzelle in charge of homemade sopapillas. Jeannie’s sons Leandro and Isaiah are seen helping with dishes.

Lauryn’s mom had her create a menu and set the table and wash dishes.
