The Handstand Kids Italian Cookbook Kit is packaged in a pizza box and includes a chef's hat (that fits all-sizes). The Italian Cookbook kit introduces kid chefs, ages 3 to 12, to delicious and healthy Italian recipes. Recipes like There's Bread in My Salad Panzanella, Oh My Pizza Pie, and Mamma's Spaghetti & Meatballs will take your little chef around the world through your own kitchen. All the utensils and ingredients are translated into Italian so you can speak the language of Italy as you cook! The recipes are leveled from 1 to 4 garlic cloves so you will know the age appropriate level for your little chef. From The Handstand Kids Cookbook Company.

Where to begin? Yvette's book is just darling. Its a children's cookbook that focuses on simple italian cooking through a group of 5 diverse children. The recipes are delish, the design and illustration rocks, and there's a nice community service angle throughout. Lots of cookbooks for kids revolve around recipes that only kids would want to eat - like ants on a log or whatever, but the recipes here are tasty and sophisticated enough to serve at a dinner party while still being easy, fun, and most importantly, appealing to kids. Give it to your nieces and nephews for their next birthday!
