Our mission has always been to teach children about the importance of eating their vegetables. We very quickly realized that one of the best ways to get the to do that is by getting them in to the kitchen and cooking. Our whole program is based off the idea that if you engage children with food and familiarize them with healthy eating concepts, you can shift their attitudes and create lifelong healthy habits. And that’s why we are so excited to partner with Curious Chef, a line of cooking equipment that’s made to inspire children to cook!
Even better, we’re joining forces with them to bring you the first ever
