This class is specially designed to encourage toddlers to explore the creative side of cooking with the help from their adult caregiver. Their senses are used to identify foods through tasting, touching, and smelling. In addition, we introduce proper kitchen hygiene and advance children’s fine and gross motor skills through measuring, stirring, and kneading. They will be amazed to watch ingredients come together and become something wonderful to eat. The class is perfect for ages 2-3 years old. We do allow 3s who are not yet ready for a separation class and prefer to be with their adult. Adult chaperone participation is required.
