The Cooking Together Kit: A Real Kitchen Set for Kids
Whitney Moss
Those unfamiliar with Montessori are often amazed when they see children as young as two years old preparing a snack for themselves or putting away silverware. The best way to introduce these processes to a child by including them in kitchen activities and by offering them a real cooking kit for kids.
The Montessori outlook is that the more we give children opportunities to practice problem-solving and to develop their capacity for concentration and perseverance, the more self-confident and capable they become. In the kitchen, kids have the chance to practice all this, plus the motor skills they'll refine with cooking-specific actions such as stirring, chopping, and pouring.
The Montessori Cooking Together Kit includes toddler-friendly kitchen tools and recipe cards
