Cooking with Kids
Cooking with your kids is not only fun and educational – it’s also a great way to encourage them to expand their culinary horizons since kids are more likely to eat what they help make.
For some helpful Kids in the Kitchen tips and strategies, check out the posts below. And, one of my favorite resources for teaching kids (and the whole family) about the joys of cooking together, is my friend Wardee’s eBook “Real Food Kids In the Kitchen” – it’s a wonderful resource, I highly recommend!
May your time in the kitchen together be blessed!
