they always do it the same way, until little Duck thinks he's got a better idea.....'

I was captivated by the book corner at a recent primary class I visited, in connection with helping young children cook as part of my course.
`Pumpkin Soup' was the source book and `the corner' was alive with the green and gold shades of Autumn, and pictures/poems about the three lovable characters, with some amazing attention to detail even down to the bag-pipes!
It proved an excellent platform for a project and the children couldn't hide their delight in acting out their little pieces - it sure brought a tear to the eye.
I particularly noticed the flow of lively replacements for the word, `said', which the children really emphasised ... Read More:

.Cooking Up A Storm - The Teen Survival Cookbook

I bought this cookbook for my 14 year old twin sons, who have always enjoyed cooking alongside me, but never attempted anything on their own before.

They both instantly loved this book, saw lots of things that they fancied cooking, but, unlike many other cookbooks, felt confident enough to give them a go.

My sons are very dyslexic, but they found the layout easy to follow and the pictures useful.

These are not groundbreaking recipes, or even the best renditions of well-known dishes, but they work fine, are well illustrated and introduce young cooks to a range of techniques in a very straightforward, jargon free way.

There is something annoying about this young man, his relatives and his friends - just a bit too perfect like the Waltons - but you can't fault the recipes. We have used them constantly.

.The Children's Step-by-step Cook Book
City Travel Guides > Books > Cookery
by: Angela Wilkes

October 07, 1999
Although keen on cooking, my 9 year old was underwhelmed by this book. Many of the recipes are too simple - fine for 5 year olds maybe but probably insufficiently challenging for older kids - but of course it all depends on your child's existing level of skill and enthusiasm.

Really great book. All the recipes have pictures of the steps and the end result. All very easy and quick to make, even to keep the concentration of my 3 year old who enjoys doing it with me, except she is very particular about me making them exactly like the pictures! Not sure I have any other recipe book on my shelf where I would enjoy every single item in the book.
