Make some of these easy snack recipes for kids, or dive into some easy cooking with kids activities to get them involved too.

Cooking with your kids is a fun way to teach them how to follow directions, practice various math skills, and even try new foods. It’s also a great way for you and your little one to spend time together while you build healthy food habits. As you work alongside your little chef, you can take the opportunity to teach early math skills such as measurement, time, and estimation.
