Age 10 to 12 years old
Its a Feast!
10-12 year olds can do much with just a little supervision. Now is the time to give them freedom to choose a recipe and follow through with a little help. Some of the lessons we will teach:
• Knife safety – we use soft cutting materials and plastic knives
• Oven safety
• Planning and shopping for meals
• Using a blender other kitchen appliances
• Using oven with supervision
• Chopping vegetables with supervision
• Following steps and preparing simple recipes
At this age, children have learned the basics of stirring dough, rolling, putting ingredients together, etc. It is time to use these skills to create meals and masterpieces!
Each lesson will cover the safety protocols of the day. We will discuss selecting our food, as well as where and how to buy it. Worksheet exercises and quizzes will keep them busy during cooking times. We also re-visit table manners and etiquette, as well as a proper place setting. Continued lessons on measuring tools and how to double and halve a recipe. They will also start their very own cookbook with shopping lists to go with their chefs hat and apron!
Cost is $150 per student. Classes are once a week for 4 weeks.
Price includes all food, chef hat, apron, and workbook.
Payment due before first class. Cash, check, PayPal.
