Ha, how funny!. I taught pre-k for 6 years and cooked with my classroom every friday!. Now I am a chef of a restaurant!.
Kids can do more than you think!.!.!.
They are amazing at making gnochi, its perfect for them, a lot like playdough!.
I really did everything though, you can give them little plastic knives and have them "chop" up different ingredients and then assemble the recipe saying their names as you stir it in!.
The parents were always amazed at what I got them to eat by involving tham in the process!. By the end of the year they could all tell the diffence between parsley, cilantro and basil!. It was great!.
I would even have moms come into the class from different ethnic backgrounds and teach us special family recipes!.
One mom came in and we all learned how to make sushi!!
It was amazing!.
Focus on texture and smells too, they love that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

How about decorating biscuits!? Have lots of things ready like sultanas, carrot sticks, grated cheese etc and show them how to make faces on round biscuits!. Use butter to stick them on maybe!? Another idea is fruit kebabs but be careful with kids and sharp sticks!Www@FoodAQ@Com
