Non Reader Recipes


"I think its wonderful to have small easy recipes for children."

Whether you call them non reader recipes, rebus recipes, or picture recipes we have what you are looking for. If your kids aren't old enough to read yet they most likely shouldn't be cooking on the stove, using knives or kitchen appliances. This limits your options of what your non reader can create in the kitchen.

They should always have an adult present to supervise but if you want to give them a chance to follow a recipe and create something on their own, here are a few recipes they can “read” that you can download.

A great idea is to print off the recipes and put them in sheet protectors. Place pages in a three ring binder and it can be your kids very own cookbook.

**Please note some recipes may require an adults prep work (cutting fruit or cooking chicken) before they can start with the recipe themselves.

You are AMAZING.  Thank you for putting together the recipes for non-readers.  I've been looking for something like this to use with my kids for a long time.  Thanks for putting the time in to put these together and then post them for others to use.
