Cooking Classes for Kids in Los Gatos

Sarah Lynn, Neighbor
What they’ll learn: When children learn how to cook, they are not only gaining a love of food, but also learning to measure, count, and explore their own creativity. Got a picky eater? It has been suggested that kids who take part in the preparation of their meals are more open to trying new foods.
Ages: 3+
Time Commitment: 1 hour per week
Cost: $20+ per class

Cooking classes and camps usually begin around age 3 with basic measuring, stirring and food preparation techniques. Classes get more advanced and specialized as children grow older. Whether it’s Italian cooking class or cake decorating, the benefits of cooking classes for kids will be apparent the first time your child says, “I’ll make dinner tonight, Mom!”
