Have you ever wanted to get your kids or teens involved in the kitchen?
PREP Cooking Classes is a great place for parents and school-aged children to find fun, educational, age-appropriate cooking activities that will help them learn about the benefit of cooking. Our cooking camps feature in-kitchen learning, healthy recipes, crafts, actual cooking, science experiments, effective kitchen practice, and more! We have something for everyone. Whether you’re looking for an activity to do with your child or want some ideas of what kinds of things they should be learning at school while also making kid-approved recipes, we can help.
You won’t believe how much fun it is to cook together as a family! It helps develop their math skills while teaching them about healthy eating habits and food safety. Plus, it gives you quality time with your child that doesn’t involve staring at a screen all day long. The best part? They don’t even realize they are learning because they are having so much fun! Check out our website today to view our collection of kitchen-inspired cooking camps, participate, and bring home some fun ideas on how to bring the joys of cooking into your home life with ease!
PREP Cooking Classes - Kids Cooking Camps
Here at PREP, we offer a "full package" to kids and their parents, which includes:
Child-friendly staff and environment with a 3-to-1 kid-to-staff ratio
Child-friendly kitchen skill education
100% hands-on classes, kids make recipes from scratch (including pastas, sauces, salads and dressings, BBQs, stir frys, crepes, sushi, and much more)
Dynamic and interesting menus (no "baby" recipes, but kid-friendly recipes), all made from fresh food -- nothing canned, packaged, processed or preserved, and no frozen foods.
Kids learn about recipes, ingredients, food and kitchen safety, kitchen equipment, knife skills, healthy eating, and teamwork, all while having fun!
For kids, camping is about being adventurous and exploring their possibilities. At our cooking camps, they get to learn by doing; making mistakes so you can fix them with a little bit of trial-and-error before trying again! We create an environment where the kids are able to grow from those mistakes and are encouraged to explore their creativity. Our seasoned staff has fun with children by providing tasks for kids who then get a chance to try them on their own, with help from their peers when necessary. At PKE camps there's never any pressure; all that matters is what you want out of your experience!
Essential cooking tasks and motor skills like cutting and shaping are performed regularly by the kids - and they never cease to amaze us how capable, creative, and fun it is in a kitchen with so many opportunities for experimentation!
Instead of traditional camps where you get to learn a skill over the course of a couple of months, our cooking camps are held not only by the week but by MENU!
