I love to brew with my daughters, 9 and 12.  I'm doing 5 gal. extract batches, so brew day is only about 2 hours.  They'll hang with me the full hour for the boil.  Prep and cleanup are all mine.  On bottling day, my 12 year old loves to fill bottles while I cap.  I explain all the details of brewing and beer to them so they understand the entire process.  I want them to understand that it's a labor of love and not all about the beer.  Great father daughter time.
