How I taught Chris to make this wrap

I began by teaching him how to make scrambled eggs, then moved on to frying the bacon. Once he felt confident with each step individually, I showed him how to assemble it all into this wrap. I started by demonstrating the folding technique once and then provided clear instructions for him to follow along.
