Hi, I’m Jackie! I created Little Cooks Reading Books to
pair theme recipes with children’s books for little chef readers in your life — including fun recipe & read ideas!
Using cooking with kids ideas and kid recipes to make at home, we’re making real food fun for kids! (Look for the children’s book pairings after each recipe!) We also have tons of fun with kids’ crafts, holiday games, and family activities that we share!
Why should you add cooking with kids recipes to your learning?
Did you know that adding fun kids recipes to your at-home learning helps with things like confidence, self-esteem, and can even help with the pickiest of picky eaters!
And, we’re not just talking about baking with kids (although that is a ton of fun). We’re also talking healthy kids recipes and snacks for kids recipes that they will love!
We’re making real food fun!
