The kitchen and children have always been two concepts linked together. As parents we usually research what is best for our children nutrition.
The benefits of cooking for children are amazing. At Sweet Treats by Alicia we truly believe the kitchen is a fantastic place to teach and promote the development of several skills of the little ones. We also recommend to spend time with the family during meal preparation, as it is something original and very effective.
Involving the kids in our cooking times brings them great benefits:
Communication: During the preparation of a recipe we must have conversations, they learn to listen and reason.
Improve self-confidence: When performing tasks reserved for adults.
It's fun: The main objective is that we enjoy together, we have to have fun cooking.
They learn about nutrition: When cooking they discover the nutrients in each food.
Teamwork: Everybody has the opportunity to participate. Cooperating is very important.
They learn new textures: Children handle different foods, being able to touch and manipulate the ingredients, they discover new textures.
Fine and gross motor skills: Through the use of kitchen utensils, children can develop their fine and gross motor skills. Something essential in the early stages of growth.
They are willing to try new foods: Having them make your recipes will help them try new foods. By manipulating the food, they are encouraged to try them. It is easier to approach the known than the unknown.
Autonomy: After making recipes together, children begin to develop autonomy that will help them perform simple tasks such as peeling a banana or making a sandwich
We encourage you to discover the chef within you and above all things to encourage the little ones to discover the wonderful world of cooking.
Based on this, we have created the Sweet Treats Baking Boxes, with friendly recipes and premium ingredients, to eliminate the fuss, and promote spending time together in a fun activity, that rewards everybody in the family.
