Kid-Friendly Recipes for Children of All Ages

If you’re looking for fun ways to get kids involved in the kitchen (and have a great time doing it), look no further! There are so many fun things to do in the kitchen that will help kids learn about their food and where it comes from.


From cooking something typically bought premade to making a recipe all by themselves, there is something fun for every age to do in the kitchen. Don’t know where to start? These helpful tips and kid-friendly recipes will have your kids learning and engaging in the kitchen before you know it!


Children Under 2

Put kids under 2 in their highchair or playpen and allow them to observe you cooking. Let them taste and smell the different ingredients you are using. You might even give them a few measuring cups and spoons to play around with. While you're at it, talk about what you are doing to spark their interest and get them helping in the kitchen when they are old enough. An easy way to do this is by making something from scratch that you typically buy premade from the store.


Children 2-5

Toddlers and preschoolers ages 2-5 can help in the kitchen by washing and ripping up lettuce, measuring ingredients, mixing things together and even decorating some sweet treats. Take the opportunity to practice counting skills, learning colors and identifying different shapes.
