About this title

From the Back Cover

Little children cooking? Of course! Cooking is an ideal way for them to learn, because food is something that all children are familiar with, enjoy, and can experience directly through the five senses. Through food children learn about measuring, chemical changes, and how ingredients combine to become something different.

Each lesson plan is delightfully illustrated and reproducible and has one complete food related activity: objectives, list of ingredients, and procedures. Celery coloring, painted toast, cheese confetti, rainbow cake, vegetable prints - as children do these activities and many more they will experience science firsthand.

The completed lesson sheets are ideal for bulletin boards and classroom display, for grouping into cookbooks, and for sending home so parents can enjoy repeating the recipes with the children.
