We believe everyone can learn to cook, including children. Cooking is simply the application of a collection of fundamental skills. When we teach children to cook, we are giving them knowledge that will serve them for life. The sense of accomplishment that accompanies a first dish, well executed, is something that a child never forgets.

Introducing Children to the Kitchen sets them on the road to self-sufficiency, and exposes them to the joy of doing something that they can share with their family and friends. Teaching our children about good, whole foods, healthfully prepared is the first step to helping them make the right choices as they become increasingly independent.

This program will teach children basic kitchen skills, will offer hands-on experience with simple recipes and easy preparation methods, and will expose them to a variety of foods and basic nutritional information. Material will be presented in a fun and accessible manner, in an environment that welcomes questions and encourages participation and discussion.

We welcome young chefs ages 9 to 13. No prior cooking experience is required. This is a six-week class – perfect for home schoolers!
