I just bought this book as my 3 yr old loves to help in the kitchen and it sounded like a fun book. The recipes look good but I was very disappointed to see that over 3/4s of the book is dedicated to sweets, this seems excessive to me. Sure kids love sweets, but 111 pages of sweets to 25 pages of meal foods (and some of those are more on the candy side than the healthy side) seems a little much. I'm sure we will have fun with this book, but more healthy options that my daughter can help prepare (and then maybe be more likely to eat) would have been nice.

I bought this book several years ago for my daughter who loves to cook. The recipes are small and easy for small hands to stir. There are no stove top recipes, all oven or microwave. Most of the recipes my daughter made were all fab, even the cream puffs.

I absolutely love Kitchen for Kids and more importantly, my daughters aged 9 and 10 love it too ! The recipes are easy to understand, fun to prepare and taste great! The pictures are inspiring and the fact that no sharp knives or small electric appliances are required makes it terrific for Junior Chefs . Learning to cook should be fun, and this book definately puts the fun back into the kitchen. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with children or grandchildren and think it would make a wonderful birthday gift !
