Cookbooks for Kids!

Kids who cook are kids who appreciate good food.

Baking is the most delicious — and often simplest — place to begin.

As a mom of four, I’m thrilled to share my cookbooks for kids.

Each one is full of simple, crowd-pleasing recipes with easy cleanup:

• Kid Chef Junior Bakes
• Super Simple Baking for Kids
• Pizza School: A Kids’ Cookbook for Aspiring Pizza Makers

All of my cookbooks for kids are available at Target, Barnes & Noble and Amazon: 

 

Every recipe in my cookbooks for kids has been tested by my own four kids and has minimal cleanup!

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT KID CHEF JUNIOR BAKES

“If you’re looking for a kids’ cookbook with a fun assortment of recipes, happy colors and great pictures, then look no further. Add to that good sensible guidelines on how to get started, along with tips for safety and cleanliness for both grown-ups and kids, and you have a winner.

The book is filled with plenty of pizza, breads and a wide assortment of fun and yummy things kids can bake. There are cookies you can have for breakfast, and one recipe even has a secret ingredient – avocado! Interesting? Yes!

I was particularly pleased to see that the author has clearly indicated when adult help will be needed. She also shows when a recipe is nut- and/or egg-free. Included are some really clever jokes, as well as pages kids can color. How can you miss with all of that? I already know I’ll be giving this to one of my grandchildren for Christmas. It will make for a great gift!”

“This full color cookbook is packed with yummy recipes kids and adults alike will love. The print is large making it easy for young readers to follow. Jokes are sprinkled throughout the book for added fun as well as several coloring pages at the end of the book. This cookbook would make a great gift for any child showing a interest in spending time it the kitchen.”

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT SUPER SIMPLE BAKING FOR KIDS

“Such a great cook book for a little baker. I love that’s it’s so much more than just cupcakes/cupcake decorating. Would highly recommend!”

***

“My ten-year-old loves to help cook or bake in the kitchen, so I definitely want to encourage this interest. This is a fantastic resource to add to our library with clear, simple step-by-step instructions accompanied by fun and colorful pictures. Most importantly, the recipes we’ve tried have been delicious! It’s very well written and organized with a positive, encouraging tone that inspires confidence and creativity in the kitchen. Many of the recipes are made with ingredients that we have on hand or can easily find, and are rated by level of difficulty. Great book for anyone wanting to bake with their young children or for an older child ready to try independently (recipes geared towards ages 6-12). Highly recommend!”

What parents are saying about Pizza School

“My daughter is typically a cheese pizza eater. Pepperoni is occasionally okay for her. This pizza cookbook has opened her eyes to new toppings and she’s eating different things on her pizza because she made it.”

***

“Kids love to cook and I believe in starting them early. Both boys and girls get a big kick out of helping with kitchen chores, especially if it requires dough and sauce. This book actually has lots of good pizza basics for any age group. Sure it’s easy to call the local pizza parlor for delivery but it’s so much more satisfying to make it yourself.

Both the dough and sauce recipes are excellent. Letting the kids see that yeast is a living thing that will work for you with the right treatment (and love) will open a whole food world to them. They’ll learn the 1-2-3-4 of pizza making: Toss, Sauce, Top, Bake! There’s a good explanation of safety and kitchen hygiene laid out before the recipes start.”
