He was soooo thrilled with himself 
My 10yo is far more adventurous and thoroughly enjoyed beating the eggs and making the batter. But my d9yo was terrified of tossing *his* pancake
Hehehe, he soon got the hang of it.
To my shame .. it was *me* who dropped the pancake - thank goodness my cat was on hand to lick up the mess!
Hands up who has the youngest pancake !!!!!!? (I'm convinced he's a late developer! I learned when I was 7yo.

Yup, tossing is the more risky of the two, but, his little wristies were more able to cope with tossing rather than the finesse of flipping

when we took out two young grandsons camping last year I let them make pancakes as a treat. We were working outside on a camping stove and both tossed their pancakes with great skill, then the 11 year old managed to let his drop on the grass. "throw it in the bin" I said, but he washed it in the fire bucket and put it back in the pan to warm up, and ate it. He is still here though so no harm done0

best fillings though are bananas and squirty cream - strawberry jam - and of course the classic lemon and sugar
that was 3 different pancakes - dont put them all together
