Make cooking fun for the whole family!
Cooking with children is a great way to encourage trying new foods. They may learn to eat a variety of foods, which leads to a long-lasting healthy lifestyle. They also learn to develop important life skills at a young age, which will help them become independent later in life.
Kids involved in planning and preparing meals may:
- Be more willing to try new foods.
- Increase self-confidence by feeling like they are contributing to the family.
- Learn cultural and family traditions.
- Spend quality time with their parents or loved ones.
- Become exposed to a variety of healthy foods.
- Learn how to use all five of their senses.
