Shaun Cairns Master Instructor Strong First

There really is something quite magical about cooking with kids. As a child, I can remember clambering up to the kitchen counter on my little white chair, putting on my mum's oversized apron  and eagerly stirring and measuring. Licking the spoon was always the best part!

My brand new cookbook is the perfect inroad to sparking a life long love of food and cooking. Each simple recipe includes step-by-step instructions and fun illustrations. They'll get to practice all kinds of basic skills such as mixing, rolling, stirring, squeezing, cutting and measuring. You won't believe how satisfying they'll find cracking eggs and kneading dough!
