SUMMER CAMP - Our Calendars for July and August are up, registration is open and ongoing. Sorry our websitsite cannot yet support online registration. Please call us at 818-340-cook, or email us at cooking@stircrazykidz.com, to reserve your dates and times. Each day at camp will bring your kidz new cooking fun and adventure. We are still fine tuning our webability to allow you more flexibility in sign-up. Flexibility allows you to sign up for 2 days, 3 days or 5 days. The more days and the more weeks you choose, the better the price!
STIR CRAZY KIDZ USES FRESH, SEASONAL, LOCAL FRUITS AND VEGETABLES whenever possible. We shop daily and therefore need 48 hours notice when signing up for class.
Kidz learn best while having fun. Healthy eating habits start early, nurtured by tasty and appealing snacks and meals – there are more flavors than “sweet”. It’s natural for Kidz to experiment. In the Kidz kitchen, they are given the formulas (recipes, skills and methods) and within an hour or two, they can brag: “I made it!”
Aside from pulling from their professional experiences, Chefs Margie and Judy are mothers, gourmet chefs, and believe in using fresh, seasonal and local ingredients. They grow fresh herbs in their GreenSpace garden. Kidz get to pick and use these herbs in recipes they cook. Sometimes “the exact menu” is a surprise because the chefs shop daily and market availability can vary. They teach Kidz how to choose a tomato, a good melon and the best season to buy different fruits and vegetables. The chefs also teach food handling, kitchen safety and nutrition.
All of this is done while preparing and cooking yummy dishes.
The chefs have the benefit of taking the advice of Chef Margie’s Kid (Mason): A graduate pastry chef of the Culinary Academy in San Francisco – also a great advocate of teaching Kidz to cook to increase their confidence. He comes up with the Best Kid Friendly Recipes to share with your Kidz.
See you soon at Stir Crazy Kidz!
