Learn Skills to Cook Tasty Meals!
Having children help cook meals and snacks is a win for everyone! Kids are more likely to try foods when they have been a part of cooking them. Cooking also helps kids gain independence and learn important life skills! ChopChop Family has monthly newsletters for kids with recipes, kitchen skills, cooking tips, and learning opportunities – check out their free Cooking Club app to help get your kids excited about cooking together! From your friends at Cambridge in Motion, a program of the Cambridge Public Health Department, and CPSD Food & Nutrition Services.
