It’s not always easy getting family meals on the table, but the benefits of eating and connecting with others are well known. We believe in the power of connecting people through food they love. We share tips and recipes to make family meals easy, nutritious, and tasty.
Having kids help prepare dinner may take a little more effort and time, but, as they build their skills, it helps get meals on the table faster. Preparing meals teaches kids how to follow directions, work on reading recipes, measure, and build culinary skills. If they are invested in cooking the meal, they may be more excited to eat it. Here are some age-appropriate tasks.
