Summary
Summary
Aprons on, it's time for kitchen fun for everyone! From cookies and cupcakes to bread and tarts, all the baking recipes in this book are tasty and easy to make (and good for grown-ups too).
Cooking together is a wonderful activity for a family to engage in, and children find it really rewarding to serve up food they've helped to make. It also develops important skills - weighing out ingredients familiarizes them with numbers, while mixing, spreading and spooning aid coordination. This book has ideas and step-by-step instructions for more than 50 baking recipes that your little ones will love to make and eat.

School Library Journal Review
PreS-Gr 1-No longer sidelined in the kitchen, young children can join in the cooking fun. Though kids are the obvious focus of these books (adorably showcased in color photos), cooking directives and instructions are geared toward adults, who will pick up solid recommendations on imparting dietary wisdom to fledgling chefs. Young foodies can participate in creating appetizing recipes, and they'll delight in sampling the simple, inventive, and scrumptious goodies they help whip up, from zucchini muffins and gingerbread people to ice pops. Juices & Smoothies also contains brief information on the health benefits of each drink (for instance, Jump-Start is a "good juice to drink during sports activities because it is isotonic"). Tantalizing, kid-friendly names, such as "Princess Peachy, "Run Rabbit Run," "Money Bags," and "Cheesy Feet" exemplify equally fun dishes. These books will easily become everyday favorites.-Kathryn Diman, Bass Harbor Memorial Library, Bernard, ME (c) Copyright 2014. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
