Join us for a special parent-and-child baking experience that brings families into the kitchen through hands-on, sensory-rich fun. In this class, you and your child will work side by side to create wholesome animal crackers and vibrant fruit kebabs – fun, wholesome treats everyone will enjoy.
Little hands will love rolling soft dough, pressing cookie cutters, and watching their creations take shape. As you bake, we’ll explore simple ways to make baking healthier for kids—like reducing added sugar and using real, nourishing ingredients—without sacrificing flavour or fun.
This class is all about connection, creativity, and having fun together (without worrying about this mess). Each child will take home their share of the animal crackers and have some to enjoy in class.
*Note: the recipe being prepared is egg-free and nut/peanut-free. Contains gluten, butter, and dairy.
