Maxim Galkin and participant of the show "Best of all" Polina Simonova
PHOTO: frame from the show "Best of all!"After the transfer, the video with her participation breaks attendance records. Polina, as they say on Channel One, “is not visible because of the ladle”, she can fall into the pan, she is scared by the garlic press, but all this does not prevent her from hosting the kitchen, because she is the smallest and most charming cook in Russia! Anastasia Simonova, mother of a little miracle, says with a laugh:
Of course, I didn’t have a goal to make a cook out of my daughter and completely shift cooking to her! She told Maxim Galkin there, of course, that she cooks from morning to night and feeds everyone at home, but she boasted about it. Polina is very inquisitive and active, eager to help me in all household chores. To channel her energy into a peaceful direction, I once took a chance and let her chop boiled vegetables for a salad. She handed her a knife from a children's table set - he cuts boiled carrots normally, but you can’t hurt your finger like that. Polina was then two years and seven months old. She liked it, and she was doing great.
And how did the program "Best of all!" find you?
My husband's parents live in another city, and I constantly shoot small videos for them so that grandparents can watch their granddaughter grow up. I sent one of these videos to the Best of All! program, and on the same day the editor called us back and invited us to take part in the filming.
Polina only knows how to cook these three dishes: Russian salad, mashed potatoes and meatballs? She demonstrated these skills on the transfer.
No you! She knows a lot. She and I have already made cabbage rolls, stuffed peppers, baked pies, baked fish. Yesterday she made us okroshka. I don't specifically teach her anything. I involve her in what I myself am going to feed my family with. I tell her what to do and in what order, and she does it. Slowly, of course, but we are not in a hurry (laughs).
Another question extremely excited the audience: why did Papa Seryozha scare the child with dinosaurs so much? (on the set, Polina mistook the crane camera for a dinosaur, got scared, hid behind the table and even cried).
What are you, our dad - the kindest good-natured man! He does not have a soul in his daughter. They have such a game when Polya portrays one capricious horse from a cartoon and runs away from her dad, and he catches up with her, portraying a dinosaur. Both run happy around the apartment and laugh. I don't know why the camera looked like a dinosaur to Polina. She saw pictures of dinosaurs in books. Maybe it was her daughter's fatigue. We were filmed late, around nine in the evening, at that time Polina usually goes to bed. After filming, she never remembered this incident with the "dinosaur". And yesterday the whole family sat down to watch the program, so she laughed at herself so much at the moment when she runs away and hides from the camera.
The youngest culinary specialist in Russia, Polina Simonova, literally conquered Maxim Galkin’s program “Best of all!” the entire large television audience with its spontaneity. The host of the TV show presented the three-year-old resident of Lyubertsy near Moscow as the one who is not visible because of the ladle, who can fall into the pan and is afraid of the garlic press, but in fact everyone saw in this charming child a sensitive and caring little man
P after “Best of all!” Polina was a guest on Andrey Malakhov's talk show “Let them talk”, where she further strengthened the sympathy of viewers for herself. The little cook literally fell in love with millions of Russians and residents of neighboring countries. Blog correspondent Lucky Child asked the girl's mother Anastasia Simonova about where her child has such a craving for cooking, and what it's like to raise a future chef.
From two years old at the stove
I wonder when you noticed in your daughter the desire to feed someone without fail?
She is a very kind and friendly girl. She didn’t know how to speak yet, but she already took care of us. From the age of two, she actively began to show interest in the kitchen.
Where did it come from, do you think? Do you love to cook yourself?
I love. I like to cook different dishes. And Polina, in general, like any child, is curious about everything new.
Does Polina’s desire not to let a person get hungry apply only to the people next to her, or can the girl, for example, take food out of the house and treat strangers in the yard?
We have not treated anyone in the yard yet. But I think if you give your daughter such an idea, she will definitely support it!
And how do the girl's peers relate to her passion for cooking?
It's hard to say, because they are still very small. I don't think they attach special importance to this, such as we adults do.
Potatoes are bad
Has it ever happened that in the process of cooking dishes, Polina forgot about safety requirements - fire and so on?
No. And it won't happen. She is a smart girl, and I am always there.
What does your daughter like to cook the most? What, in your opinion, does she do best?
He loves to cook absolutely everything. She always manages to try something in the process of cooking. And this is the most delicious! Polina's cutlets and all sorts of salads are excellent.
Surely, in the process of cooking, some funny stories and curiosities happened to your daughter. Share?
Funny things happen all the time - she swears at foods when they don't want to be cut and calls them "harmful." And, the next time we start cooking, the daughter will definitely ask, for example: “Are the potatoes doing harm again today?”
Have your daughter mastered any new dishes since the public feeding process of Maxim Galkin?
Of course, a lot of new ones.
Media affairs
Does Polina watch any cooking shows on TV? Where does she learn new recipes?
On TV - no, but on Instagram from famous food bloggers we watch.
Reveal the secret: how to get on the TV show "Best of all!"?

I think that she did not think about the country at that moment.

We do not participate. If they call, then gladly.
Only forward - and with great love

No longer afraid - now loves. And he plays with them. It’s just that at that moment she was tired in the studio - and that’s how she reacted to the camera.

“My daughter became interested in culinary arts at about two years old. At first she watched me cook in the kitchen and asked questions. Then I started trying it myself. Started with the simplest dishes, then more and more difficult. I used a children's toy knife. We entrusted the real knife to Polina at the age of 2 years and 8 months. I remember this moment well, I was terribly worried! But everything worked out. With a knife, my daughter is controlled surprisingly deftly and at the same time carefully. Gradually, we stopped being afraid that she would cut herself. The debut dish of our cook was the Olivier salad,” said Anastasia, the mother of the little cook.
According to her, Paulie's skill grew by leaps and bounds. Natural abilities and amazing diligence for a child did their job. Now the daughter, already being a “pro”, will treat her with baked fish with cheese, and naval pasta, cabbage rolls stuffed with peppers, various salads, charlotte, sweet puffs / pies, scrambled eggs, stew with gravy and a delicious side dish.
“And the truth will treat, will not regret it, will offer more supplements. Polya is a very kind and friendly girl,” Anastasia smiles.
The mother of our heroine explained that for the casting in the TV program “Best of all!” they came by chance and even spontaneously.
“During my lunch break at work, I filled out a form on the Channel One website and sent several videos from the Fields. A couple of hours later, they called me and requested a video presentation where the child talks about himself. Then we were invited to a casting to the chief editor in Ostankino. My daughter successfully coped with it, after which there were two days of rehearsals at Mosfilm and shooting there in the evening. Polya is usually already sleeping sweetly in her bed at this time, but here she worked for 5+. And not a drop of whims! Today the whole family watched our daughter on TV. And we, parents, and our friends, and everyone who knows and loves Polina, were proud of her unexpected culinary talent, ”admits Anastasia.
Well, many Lyubertsy also watched Polina on TV and were proud of their little countrywoman. They laughed at her childish spontaneity and were surprised at some quite adult answers. When asked by Maxim Galkin what dishes she does best, the girl answered with a sweet smile: “Olivier” and cutlets. And then she showed how cleverly she does them. I also prepared mashed potatoes for a side dish, skillfully whipping the potato mass with a mixer. And I didn’t forget the oil, what a cook! First of all, she treated mom and dad, who were sitting among the audience, with cooked dishes. “And treat everyone else,” Polina said magnanimously.
Polina Simonova was awarded the “Best of All” medal and a backpack with sweets on a TV show. But, I think, the real awards in her life are yet to come. Moreover, the girl has already clearly defined her future. "I'll be a chef and open my own restaurant." That's it. No more, no less. You also need to be able to dream, and then everything will come true.
Maxim Galkin and Arina
Young Orenburg woman Arina Zenkina took part in a children's television talent show "Best of all" on Channel One. The two-year-old girl captivated the host of the program Maxim Galkin with poems. We talked with the mother of a talented baby, who told how the shooting went.
“Arina spoke her first words at 8 months old”
The Zenkin family has two daughters. Mom works in court, and dad works in the prosecutor's office. According to her mother, Arina spoke her first words in 8 months, and in a year and a half she was already fully speaking.
- At the age of 2, Arina memorized K. Chukovsky's poem "Fly-Tsokotuha". We noticed an interest in studying poetry, so we began to learn long poems with her, which she told in a very artistic and emotional way. Everyone who saw and talked with Arina admired such an early development, so we decided to try our hand at participating in a TV show.
How was the shooting?
On the program, a young Orenburg woman read a poem K. Chukovsky "Telephone".
- Of course, during the filming, we were very worried, because the child was small, but, thank God, Arinochka told everything perfectly, she still had time to joke with Maxim, the whole audience applauded her, everyone laughed and was touched by her jokes. Now we are looking forward to the release of the program.
“Some uncle is sitting stupid”
There is already a video with Arina on the Internet. Before going on stage, the girl burst into tears, but then laughed Maxim Galkin, telling the story of his journey to Moscow.
- Arrived from her home. I see that my uncle is sitting some stupid, - Arina said about Maxim Galkin.
