I believe that teaching children to cook whole food from scratch is an essential life skill. I will encourage them to be adventurous with food and experiment with flavours and textures, as they taste and tweak recipes. This is all part of the learning process and fun.
Classes are small (max of 6) to maximize on hands-on experience and learning potential, so book early to avoid disappointment.
If you would like to organize a ‘one-of-a-kind’ birthday/special occasion’ cooking event please contact me.
What our young WMK chefs have to say about their experience at WMK:
What parents are saying …
“My son has recently attended a number of Claire’s classes and has thoroughly enjoyed them all. I have no idea how Claire manages to have them accomplish all they do in just a few hours. The food is wonderful and the experience and pride the kids have in making it all from scratch is even better. Thank you to Claire and Robert for being so lovely!”
“My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Woolen Mill Kitchen in a parent/child cooking class. Claire was exceptional—hands-on, patient, and incredibly helpful. We had the opportunity to prepare a lot of food at a comfortable pace. My daughter shared that she learned that cooking isn’t about making the perfect dish but having fun - which we did!
During a short break, we indulged in delicious chocolate cookies by the river, adding a cozy touch to the experience. We highly recommend a class at Woolen Mill Kitchen and can’t wait to return.”
“My daughter has been to almost all of the Woolen Mill Kitchen’s kid events! It has given her a place where she has discovered she loves cooking, boosted her confidence, and has given her a sense of pride. Claire teaches everything from ingredient selection, planning a menu, cooking the food and presentation. The summer camp takes all those steps from start to finish which allows the participants to display what they have learned all week to their parents on the last evening. My daughter has tried food she has never had before and learned new skills, all in the most positive environment! I would highly recommend any event that Woolen Mill Kitchen is hosting.”
