Simply in Season Children's Cookbook

Tuesday June 30, 2009
Cover art of Simply in Season Children's CookbookAs the introduction states, Simply in Season Children's Cookbook provides "a way for kids of all ages but especially 6 to 12 year olds to get in touch with real food, to see where it comes from, to take responsibility for preparing it, and to have fun in the process." The emphasis on growing your own food and/or knowing how to identify when it is ripe will help to engage your children's interest. The recipes themselves are easy to follow and have been taste-tested by both children and parents. If you are looking for a cookbook the whole family will enjoy, I recommend Simply in Season Children's Cookbook. Are there cookbooks for the whole family that you particularly like? If so, click on "Comments" below and post your recommendations.

(1) Mark Waterfield says:

Such a good idea to read and learn about what grows when in the year. Vegetables that have been grown in the the local vegetable patch are fresh and have not been flown or trucked across the country.
