I love cooking simple recipes for kids with my children. I know, I know — sometimes kids make a mess in the kitchen. Sometimes cooking simple recipes for kids takes longer to do and what if the kids ruin the recipe? Any or all of the above may be true, but the potential for fun and learning outweigh the risks! And you may discover that you love it, too!

Kids love being involved with preparing food. That’s part of why they’re so likely to get in the way in your kitchen. They’re interested in what you’re doing, while you may be ignoring them. So rather than push them away, draw them in. Cooking activities are appropriate for children aged two and up. Obviously, the kind of involvement and learning is different for a two-year-old and a five-year-old, but both can be involved in the process, learn while cooking simple recipes for kids and have fun!
