We do it because cooking is fun – and a valuable life skill that is getting harder to come by. We do it because “real food” is really good – it tastes good and we need it for strong, healthy bodies and brains.
We do it because the best way to get kids loving real food is to get them in the kitchen measuring, mixing, chopping, touching, smelling and tasting. We do it because we believe real change happens one bite at a time.
Our kid's classes start from ages 3-5 with Mommy/Daddy & Me to ages 5-7 learning important motor skills and expanding their palates with yummy treats.Â
Join us at The Curious Kitchen for a fun class dedicated to Baking Desserts! This is a hands-on cooking class where fun and creativity are encouraged. Jr. Bakers will bake for about two hours and then we'll sit down to decorate our cakes and eat lunch.
Mommy & Me class is offered by Whipped Bakery Cafe. Hands on baking projects that will include mixing, frosting, and decorating for moms and 3 to 4yr. olds.
When you sign up your kid for a cooking camp at HCG, you are signing them up not only for a food camp but for a journey around the world.
We have options for elementary school and beyond. From days off school and after school series, to summer camps, we got you!
