This series class is designed for kids 8 to 16. They will learn how to read a recipe, prepare and cook delicious and healthy dishes with emphasis on nutrition and food science. In this 4 day series course the kids will be exposed to working in the kitchen. We will cover basic kitchen techniques, measuring, how to read a recipe, how to plan a menu, basic etiquette, how to set a table, proper serving techniques as well as learn how to prepare a simple menu.
Limited to 20 students. The 4 day camp is $75.00 per day a total of $300.00 and you have must register your kid chef for all 4 days.
Teaching your children how to cook is one of the best gifts you can give them. A COOK must be creative, understand math fundamentals,science, nature, have excellent hand-eye coordination and be constantly attentive to reading and writing. These skills are among the most important to teach children when young. Getting children involved in preparing their own meals is also a wonderful opportunity to instill the import of eating nutritious meals. It may eventually become a necessity to teach children how to prepare meals, they may need to help out with family food shopping, preparation and cleanup. Becoming skilled in the kitchen is more than fun -- it is necessary for survival! Also, if your young chef has aspirations of being a big chef one of these days, this is what it will be like in culinary school.
