Recipes that are child-friendly and nominated by my Grandchildren for inclusion in the cook book.
All my grandchildren really enjoy getting stuck in and making meals, bread and cakes. It’s a bit of a family tradition to get the children involved in the cooking, safely of course and under supervision.
It’s a life skill which sets them up for independence in later life in this world of fast food and ready meals. I’m pleased to say that my sons are very good cooks and are passing on their love of cooking and baking to their children.
