teaching 5yo to sew on machine

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My 5yo got a machine for Christmas. Is it best for her to start off sewing by just turning the crank? If you think I should have her using the foot pedal where do you suggest I set it up so that she can reach the pedal on the floor? They only place I can think to do it is on her picnic table which is currently being used in the play room. Thanks!

I would definitely start with just a crank. In fact, I sort of wish I had a crank myself. She can learn all about how the machine works without either of you worrying about her accidentally pushing down the pedal.
