Teaching your child to iron, obviously has it's risks, so if you choose to teach this skill, keep the iron on a low setting and make sure they understand to only touch the handle.
If you're worried at all about this one, I'd suggest teaching them another household chore that might benefit them (and you) in the future. (Folding clothes, mopping, cleaning out the refrigerator, etc) They'll be thrilled to learn anything.
This is Miss Hayley learning the basics of sewing.
And Miss T learning to eat with chopsticks. (A skill that this mom has yet to develop)
