Teaching Kids To Cook Activities and Learning Page
Kids cooking programs are a fantastic way to get kids interested and even excited about healthy foods. Kids have the opportunity to create healthy meals that teach kids while they learn important math and reading skills as they follow recipes and measure ingredients. Children also learn about food safety and meal planning skills they help them learn about nutrition and healthy choices in a very fun, interactive way.
Begin your cooking class by discussing with kids some valuable cooking tips and guidelines for cooking healthy, delicious meals. It is important to review rules in the kitchen to prevent food contamination, injury and promote a safe environment. We have created fun tips and guidelines that you can use with children to promote a safe and healthy cooking experience. See all our
