Lesson 9


We are going on a field trip for today's kids cooking lessons. Tour a specialty kitchen shop (or if one isn’t available, use your own kitchen.)



Part 1: What are All These Cool Kitchen Tools For?

graphic of various kitchen tools for kids cooking lessons

Explain all the kitchen tools you see and what they are used for, such as, a potato masher, a garlic press, a whisk, a pastry brush, a pasta machine, a sifter and so on.

Your child may have seen you use them before but make a special point to explain what these things (and more) are used for.
