Apple Chef Program
Cooking with children encourages them to try new healthy foods. It allows us to introduce them to a variety of fresh, healthy foods while also opening up a slew of new learning opportunities.
New words like peel, mix, and squeeze are used to introduce reading and vocabulary. Time, measuring, and fractions are introduced through terms like one quarter, one half, and one teaspoon, tablespoon, and cup. Patience, safety, and an appreciation for food are all learned through trial and error.
From an early age, choosing foods together and involving children in healthy seasonal cooking and eating will lay the groundwork for lifelong healthy eating habits.
