New research reveals more Kiwi kids are losing out on learning key life skills, with cooking at the top of the list.

77 percent of parents say it's vital for children to learn to cook before they grow up and leave home, but only 21 percent get their kids involved in the kitchen.

Just 60 percent of 13-17 year olds can cook three or more meals, according to recent data.

LittleCooks tutor Dalene Gourley says many parents want to get their kids involved, but they don't feel they have the time, patience or know-how to make it work.

"I also think they feel that the kitchen will turn into chaos or that it's quicker to just do it themselves - and I can completely understand that."
