Baking is an excellent way to get involved of what they truly like and dislike food when they are involved in creating it themselves. Our older tykes can follow simple directions as we read the recipe out loud and poured the ingredients step by step . Children are honored to measure out each ingredient they build effective skills in all areas of development from following simple instructions, tasting and mixing. Children began to notice the way it was changing in consistency and texture like dough. Hands on experience to roll and scoop out tiny balls to flatten in to flavorful cookies. Once the cookies were baked the children eat and some to take home. This treat was a savory chocolate chip cookie that melts our hearts and nourishes our body. There are few local programs that offer cooking classes at a young age.
