Little chefs will enjoy lots of sensory play (think bins of cornstarch, flour, cornmeal, or whatever the class happens to be working with that day) where they are encouraged to touch, feel, and squish to their heart’s content. These classes are ‘hands-on’ as children chop, mix, combine, and are introduced to kitchen tools like the whisk, spatula, blender, and mixer.
